Inexperienced in blackmailing others but determined to do anything to gain some fortune from it, the two go on with their plan on selling the contents of the disc to the highest bidder and unknowingly put themselves in serious situations.

Directed, produced and scripted by the renowned Coen brothers, "Burn" is a Focus Features' tidbit that teams up A-list Hollywood stars, , , , and as the leading characters. It reportedly is set to be premiered at 2008 Venice Film Festival on August 27, 2008 when it opens the festival. Additionally, it will receive its theatrical trailer on September 12 .
