Released March 14th in the US.
Filmed in Iowa and California.
The story: In 1989, Jack Rebney was a salesman for the Winnebago company.
He was sent to Iowa with a film crew in the sweltering hot depts of the summer heat, to make a promotional advertisement for Winnebagos.
What happened was, in between filming the takes, the cameramen continued to roll tape.
They rolled tape, because of how aggravated and irritated Mr. Rebney was. Over and over again, he lost his cool, calm and collection that can be seen on the actual video. This rolling of the outtakes was then made into a collection video, titled The Angriest Man in the World.
One of quite a few got a hold of this outtakes video and became instantly obsessed with finding out anything and everything he could about the infamous Jack Rebney.
What follows is that man's journey and adventure.

The story: It has been quite a few tough years for mother and daughter, Annemette and Mette Beckmann.
While the man of the house was still alive, the small family of three lived quite well never wanting for anything as he was an heir to his rich father's fortune.
But all of a sudden, when the revolution happened, the family basically was robbed of their riches and left for broke, having just about nothing to fall back on.
These days, mother and daughter are stuck living together in very close quarters.
The two live off the of the mother's state checks and selling off beautiful vintage things that were gifts to their family when they were well off.
We get to see the daughter, who mind you is a 50-year-old woman more than able to take care of herself and elderly mother physically just not mentally - give her mother shit for not raising her correctly so she could fend for herself.
The two go through many daily problems which all arise due to their lack of cash flow.
So, the daughter is increasingly bored, lonely, tired, angry and quite needy - not exactly taking into consideration that her mother is old and could be gone any day or how badly she feels for her daughter or how much she worries about her future. Daughter has her little dog - Lady, whom she loves to pieces and every now and then she goes out to the disco and dances by herself or goes to get her tarot read.
