Genre: Documentary Feature
USA/ 82 Min

Executive Producers:  Jenny Abel and Jeff Hockett

SCREENING ADDED FOR SUNDAY APRIL 9TH!!

As far back as she can remember, Jenny Abel has seen her father appear on television under a variety of aliases, fooling news reporters and talk show hosts. He was continually plotting new ways to infiltrate the media with one of his seemingly absurd causes. Throughout the years, people have accused him of being a scam artist or an impostor. But to Jenny, he was always just a father with a unique profession. Alan Abel, by trade, is a professional prankster. His hoaxing career began in the late 1950s with a campaign to clothe all animals for the sake of decency. Abel Raises Cain attempts to explain the true motives behind Alan's hoaxes and, in the process, allows for a different perspective on how the media operates.
