Honestly sounds like an interesting concept. From I was.gling in blind at least your idea sounds interesting enough to warrant giving a demo a try.

My only word of caution is that you said you wanted to make a dark comedy about ethics and that’s going to be a tough sell at the best of times. That isn’t to say that there is no audience for something with gallows/macabre/dark satire humor, just that that group is small from the jump.

One of the more interesting takes I’ve seen on the trolley problem is the “double and pass” wrinkle. Where it starts with you and the person you value the most on the track on one side and a random stranger on the other. And your choice is to either sacrifice your loved one or spare both passing the decision on to the next person where it’s doubled. As in their loved one versus two strangers.
