Trump Fiction

The President is in a pickle. To delay his imminent impeach­ment and receive the new "Nobel Prize for Immensity", Trump and his entourage are hightailing it to Europe.

Across the continent the sales of guns, axes and rat poison skyrocket as retired spies, royal families, and envious right-wing politicians all think the same thing: wouldn't it be great to Bump Trump?!


The Very Hungry President

Some are born to fame, others achieve it by hard work. For Italian artist Stefano Bosis fame comes pissing in his plant pot. And he grasps it without hesitation! And wraps it up! 

In a world where fiction pales in comparison to political reality, there is still a few bits of fun to be had, but not without suffering the slings and arrows of outrageous personalities... As part of the Trump Fiction series, The Hungry President combines liberal adult fantasy with oddball hilarity.

2016: Kythera mon Amour

Rent the film here.

Leaving your mother and home for another country can be a test of will for the best Greek Island Bachelor, but when young George has to choose between a future in Australia or an array of quirky passionate commitments in an economically stricken Greece, his willpower is put to the test. And, on the other side of the island, when Poppy and Georgos, brother and sister in the countryside of Kythera, make a bold decision about their future, not even their bees can stop gossiping... 

 

Despite the array of captivating characters, the protagonist of the film is most certainly the island of Kythera itself, full of heroic landscapes and melancholic stories. More
