Drama

Mr. America is an auteur thriller that takes inspiration from the story of David Solanas, to represent the negative spiral of many artists, dazzled by the temporary celebrity that brought Andy Warhol, the curse that for some was fatal. The film develops on three distinct temporal planes that intertwine swirlingly to form a canvas of past, present and future. The brutal and obsessive acts that were committed in Penny's childhood generate a ruinous family relationship that will be the focus of the story.

Ivan is an undocumented immigrant from Eastern Europe who is in Italy looking for work to support himself and his father, who has a gambling addiction. When Ivan hears of work on a nearby island, he makes the trip only to be cheated and beaten by unscrupulous thugs. When all seems bleak, Ivan is befriended by Martina, an eccentric woman who never speaks and lives with Father Enzo, a compassionate priest who takes in misfits and transients. Despite his warm heart, Enzo has a harsh personality which has only gotten worse since he's been bedridden by a stroke. Enzo's sister helps look after him, but he's certain she only wants to gain control of land he owns but uses only to keep bees, which are cared for by Martina. As Ivan becomes part of the priest's household, he helps make Enzo's life more harmonious and bonds with the normally shy Martina, but not everyone in the community takes so kindly to the stranger who is clearly not Italian.
