Director's Statement

There’s this image that’s been circulating on Internet forums for a few years. I think most people who saw it thought it was weird or really disgusting, but I saw a real person in a tragic situation.

This film attempts to piece the details together of that persons life and tell a story that is truthful, sad and very funny. I grateful to the amazing group of collaborators that gave me the courage to tell this strange story.
