| SYNOPSIS __________
Plot:
In America, we define ourselves in the superlative: we are
the biggest, strongest, fastest country in the world. We reward
speed, size and above all else: winning - at sport, at business
and at war. Metaphorically we are a nation on steroids. Is
it any wonder that so many of our heroes are on performance
enhancing drugs?
From the producers of Bowling For Columbine and Fahrenheit
9/11 comes a new film that unflinchingly explores our win-at-all-cost
culture through the lens of a personal journey. Blending comedy
and pathos, BIGGER, STRONGER, FASTER* is a collision of pop
culture, animated sequences and first-person narrative, with
a diverse cast including US Congressmen, professional athletes,
medical experts and everyday gym rats.
At its heart, this is the story of director Christopher Bell
and his two brothers, who grew up idolizing muscular giants
like Hulk Hogan, Sylvester Stallone and Arnold Schwarzenegger,
and who went on to become members of the steroid-subculture
in an effort to realize their American dream. When you discover
that your heroes have all broken the rules, do you follow
the rules, or do you follow your heroes?
