Mister America
He's running for district attorney. And technically he's not a murderer.
Directed by Eric Notarnicola
Produced by Abso Lutely Productions, Magnolia Pictures
A darkly absurdist political satire that mines comedy from the collision between a morally compromised candidate and the machinery of electoral politics.
Heidecker beats a murder charge for selling faulty e-cigarettes at an EDM festival, and mounts a campaign to unseat the San Bernardino District Attorney. His effort to win voters tries to overcome a lack of experience and funding by leaning into the candidate’s personal likability. It does not go well.
