U.S. Premiere
In this largely improvised comedy from the directors of MEATHEAD GOES HOGWILD, Hall of Fame Architect and untrained actor Nick Luzietti (also a Chicago local!) shines in easily the most peculiar, wild, and just down-right fucking crazy performance you'll see at this years festival (he's incredible). Shot on location in Chicago, THE SECRET POPPO follows Luzietti as he discovers that not only does he have a granddaughter he never knew about, but she's also missing! What happens from there can only be described as THE PINK PANTHER crossed with an acid trip (yes of course that's a compliment).
