Making it in the show business is not easy, but being an actor in Denver is even more difficult - especially when you have a grueling routine as a computer repairman. To fulfill his dream, Arthur Martinez hires two independent filmmakers to document his life, and in this way, make him into a movie star. However, soon it becomes clear that following him while he practices tai chi or filming his interactions with the local theater group will not be enough to sustain a cinematic plot. Is Arthur real or is he just acting? Is it all a performance? Tribeca 2016.
