Mr. America
Mr. America is an auteur thriller that takes inspiration from the story of David Solanas, to represent the negative spiral of many artists, dazzled by the temporary celebrity that brought Andy Warhol, the curse that for some was fatal. The film develops on three distinct temporal planes that intertwine swirlingly to form a canvas of past, present and future. The brutal and obsessive acts that were committed in Penny's childhood generate a ruinous family relationship that will be the focus of the story.

A group of people are standing along the platform of a railway station in La Ciotat, waiting for a train. One is seen coming, at some distance, and eventually stops at the platform.
