PUBLIC DOMAIN (1 x 120’) cc available for selected territories

Feature-length movie. Starring Don McKellar and Jason Jones

PUBLIC DOMAIN is a dark, disturbingly funny film about a fictional game show that celebrates, amongst other lackluster qualities, sloth, anguish and bitter disillusionment, by awarding a grand prize of $50,000 to the "contestant" with the most pathetic life. Recklessly collapsing the boundaries between television and reality, "Public Domain" is real life completely unscripted and unmediated: contestants have been chosen at random, their homes have been secretly outfitted with state-of-the-art surveillance equipment, and their day-to-day lives have been broadcast without permission, mercilessly ridiculed by the show’s pair of self-righteous, chain-smoking pseudo-intellectual hosts (Don McKellar, The Red Violin, Childstar and Jason Jones, Phil the Alien, Ham and Cheese), and voted on by viewers around the world.
