King of California

You've got to believe in treasure to find it.

A bittersweet father-daughter story about idealism and delusion, where a mentally ill man's quixotic treasure hunt becomes a vehicle for reconnection and the question of whether belief itself has value.

Charlie gets released from an insane asylum and moves in with Miranda, the young daughter he left behind. Charlie believes that there is treasure hidden beneath the local Costco, so he puts together a plan to unearth the loot. By convincing Miranda to quit her job at McDonald's and instead work at the wholesale store, he is able to obtain a key. Although Miranda is skeptical, she helps her father with his irrational quest.
