Rent Hillary

Synopsis

HILLARY is funny, insightful, and revealing. It is a humorous docudrama novel which contrasts the PR images of our presidential aspirant, Hillary, with endearing characters, such as the maligned survivor Carl Meeks, his granddaughter and philosophical prostitute Carmella, her whistle blowing husband Tony, and the seductive sleaze of her PR agent, Mr. Gingrinch: Hillary could declassify national secrets. I want Tony to produce a Hillary TV script that will destroy her credibility. Democracy is too fragile a flower to risk in the hands of a woman... Just as The Newton Show offers a metaphor for contemporary American culture, HILLARY addresses the plastic images created for our politicians by media giants such as Newton PR, a media landscape of lifelike fantasies of our political candidates and our values. Hillary is trapped in the prison of her manipulated public media image, disguised as the real person. Our entire society may be living in an enclosed, high-tech, drug-induced deception of self-indulgence. Hillary feels blocked by malevolent simulators and high-tech manipulators who are intent on keeping her inside the plastic bubble of her public image. In the end, Hillary goes on a journey to escape this realm of smoke and mirrors: Dr. Thomas Moore traces the history of government corruption, questions the manipulation of our youth, and promotes a survival strategy to resist the threat of global catastrophe.
