SYNOPSIS: 2007 U.S. Theatrical Release! AMERICAN CANNIBAL turns reality TV on its head as it chronicles the struggle of two writer/producers to get their pitch for a brutal, all or nothing reality TV show produced. The fireworks begin when the two out of work television writers are hired by the publicity-obsessed promoter Kevin Blatt, the force
behind the notorious Paris Hilton sex tape, to create a television show "where survival is just the beginning." Featuring exclusive on-set access and interviews with industry insiders such as New York Post’s Linda Stasi and The Daily Show’s Lizz Winstead, as well as a number of reality-TV veterans (Trishelle Cannatella, etc), AMERICAN CANNIBAL draws upon our reality and celebrity-obsessed culture to create a hybrid style of storytelling that resonates as both fresh and true. website: www.american-cannibal.com
