Synopsis
Married and expecting a child, music video director Pasqual is struggling to balance the needs of his business and his pregnant wife. When a famous rapper hires him, Pasqual finds a look-alike to impersonate him at work while he focuses on his new family. But his replacement has ideas of his own.
Editorial
Directors Pasqual Gutierrez and Ben Mullinkosson skewer the clout-chasing music video scene with absurd candor, casting loved ones and colleagues in an inventive doppelgänger docufiction. Depicting contemporary LA with cringe-inducing accuracy, this improvisatory industry satire hits home—literally.
