About
Aspiring comic Rupert Pupkin attempts to achieve success in show business by stalking his idol, a late night talk-show host who craves his own privacy.
The claustrophobic obsession of a delusional wannabe comedian turns the bright lights of late-night television into a psychological trap. This unsettling character study captures the thin, terrifying line between being a fan and being a predator.
