Dir. Eric Notarnicola. 2019, 90 mins. Digital projection. With Tim Heidecker, Terri Parks, Gregg Turkington and Curtis Webster. Mister America follows Tim Heidecker (Tim and Eric Awesome Show, Great Job!) in his attempts to enter the world of politics. After beating a murder charge for selling faulty e-cigarettes at an EDM festival, Tim seeks revenge by running a campaign to unseat the San Bernardino District Attorney. Fueled by ego and ignorance, he tries to surmount a lack of experience, funds and likability by personally connecting with unsuspecting constituents. It does not go well.
