The Idiot Movie Synopsis
In this comedy/drama, a group of perfectly intelligent young people decide to go against society's
cult of an aimless, non-creative and non-responsible form of intelligence by living together in a
community of "idiots". Their main activity -- going out into the world of "normal" people and
pretending to be mentally retarded. They take advantage of this situation to create anarchy
everywhere as they go and try by every possible means to make people annoyed, disturbed, miserable,
ridiculous, angered, and shocked.
