Fat Kid Rules the World
Can a tambourine roll and the thump of a kick drum change your life? Can a crunchy riff and a husky hook lift you up when you’re down and out? Can a fat kid rule the world? In Seattle, the birthplace of grunge, two completely different teenagers attempt to channel their rage, hoping adult life will be better than this.
Can a tambourine roll and the thump of a kick drum change your life? Can a crunchy riff and a husky hook lift you up when you’re down and out? Can a fat kid rule the world? In Seattle, the birthplace of grunge, two completely different teenagers attempt to channel their rage, hoping adult life will be better than this. Troy takes it out on food and weighs 296 pounds, while Marcus is a pill popper. Their paths will cross when Troy will attempt suicide and Marcus will save the day. Together they will start a punk band to mix it up, forging a friendship that will last forever. Jacob Wysocki from last year’s "Terri" and Matt O’Leary of "Natural Selection" fame drive the entire film, proving their acting credentials in the US indie scene. "Fat Kid Rules the World" is a hilarious and shockingly authentic film, a coming-of-age story seen through the eyes of a gifted comedian whose debut feature rightfully won the SXSW Audience Award.
