Dinner in America

Director: Adam Rehmeier Run Time: 106 min. Release Year: 2022

Following a Sundance premiere in January 2020, this one-of-a-kind film failed to secure a distributor, and seemed destined to stay under the radar, even after self-distributing in 2022. However, a hit song that caught on through TikTok (‘Watermelon’) created an overnight cult classic. The tale of an on-the-lam punk rocker and a young woman obsessed with his band who go on an unexpected and epic journey together through the decaying suburbs of the American Midwest.

“It’s a treatise on America, the blurred line between taboo and cruelty, and our collective fear of real individuality despite claims by both sides of the aisle to foster freedom. The outcasts get their day.” ~ Jared Mobarak, The Film Stage
