The Patsy

  • Log in or register to post comments

In a wild comedy, we meet an ordinary man who becomes the perfect victim of a bizarre family theater game. In a family of wealthy Hollywood producers, one of them desperately seeks a new approach to revive their declining career. The solution arrives in the form of their clumsy assistant, a kind but somewhat bewildered guy who becomes the target of incredible manipulation.

As the family plots their plan to capitalize on the protagonist's public image, unaware of the chaos that will ensue, he is turned into a "scapegoat" to divert attention from the scandals surrounding the family. A series of misunderstandings and absurd situations push him beyond his limits, from out-of-control interviews to unexpected encounters with the press and the entertainment world.

Amidst all this commotion, the protagonist begins to realize that, although he doesn't feel like a star, his kindness and authenticity have earned him the affection of the public. As the plot thickens, the film presents an intelligent satire on the superficiality of fame and the price paid for being a pop culture icon.

With a stellar cast and a clever script, this story will take you on a roller coaster of laughs and reflections on what it truly means to be loved and valued in a world filled with glitz and shadows.
