Synopsis

Following Iceland's economic meltdown, native comedian Jon Gnarr launches his own political party: The Best Party. His platform included free trips to Disneyland, more polar bears at the zoo, and refusing to work with anyone who did not watch the entire 5 seasons of the HBO series "The Wire". The initial idea was to poke fun at the establishment that had failed in such a big way. But when support for Gnarr's outlandish mayoral bid developed an unstoppable momentum of its own, it was apparent that Gnarr had hit a nerve and unexpectedly become a voice for a disenfranchised people. By election day, something incredible was about to happen.
