Micro Budget

“Epic Ambition. Major Delusion. Micro Budget.” When Terry (Patrick Noth) discovers he’s about to be a father, he does what any other sane person would do. He moves himself and his nine-months-pregnant wife from Iowa to Los Angeles to shoot a low-budget indie movie and sell it to a streamer for a “f-ing ton of money.” Documented by his cousin Devin’s behind-the-scenes camera crew, Terry suddenly finds that his beliefs about diversity, the #MeToo movement, and what technically qualifies as a properly financed film production put him at odds with, well, every single person who meets him. Featuring a cast of comedy MVPs (and a great bit by veteran Hal Linden), the uproarious Micro Budget follows Terry’s disastrous attempts to make a movie and his inability to serve a decent lunch.
