“A Medical Comedy That's Really Sick !”

Comedy

Plagued by uninsured patients, greedy insurance companies, heartless health care conglomerates, and stressed out doctors, the health care delivery system is on the verge of a total breakdown - and Jake Gorman couldn't be happier as suing doctors has made Jake a famous and very wealthy man. Jake never met a doctor he couldn't sue, until now.

This film delivers a cynical, propulsive comedic take on a broken system. It feels like a darkly humorous, exasperated jab at corporate greed and the absurdities of modern healthcare, wrapped in a broad, satirical package. Expect a critical, yet laugh-out-loud, exploration of societal frustrations.
