Synopsis

Meet Greg, with his unruly mop, starving eyes and affable smile, and Gentillon, with an equally wild mop and a deep thirst for success--a thirst that can't be quenched by peddling standup in the smoky dives of Aylmer, Quebec. Should they try Vegas, L.A., Paris? Hmmm--no. Toronto. Arguing constantly with their dodgy agent, the duo slink from hostel to hostel and bar to bar, resolved to make the toughest crowds laugh. Not easy when your English is broken, your clothes suck, and your routine is laden with anti-gags. This tale of their absurdist adventures unfolds documentary-style happily embracing both the little white lies of shoestring documentaries and the larger truths of fiction. Who are these buddies? Sympathetic embodiments of the art of achieving fifteen minutes of fame? A pair of fraudsters? Or true misunderstood artists?
