Synopsis
Who says home movies are boring? With the help of a Nobody Beats the Wiz 33-day money back guarantee, aspiring filmmaker Philip Botti sets out in his home town with 33 days to make a movie for free. Welcome to Middletown, New Jersey, home of the world's only standing Food Circus Clown, birthplace of Geraldo Rivera and host to a fascinating yet familiar group of residents who become the all-too-willing subjects of Botti's operatic feature--the Wolfe Man, an overweight exotic dancer who never seems to sober up; Sweet Lou Fulgoni, thrown in jail for 10 days for outstanding traffic violations; Botti's mom, an inveterate couch potato with a love/hate relationship to the camera; and Ray, a pot-smoking Geraldo Rivera groupie and talk-show addict turned skinhead.
