Set to be THE cinematic release of the summer.
Plot’s it all about? Forget your Independence Days, your Captain Americas or your X-Mens, there’s only one cinematic release that matters this summer and it’s the documentary about the life and times of Michael ‘Mattress Mick’ Flynn.
Self-described as “Ireland’s craziest salesman,” he has starred in some of the craziest and most entertaining advertisements ever seen and has become something of a cult hero in the process.
The documentary tells the story of Paul and Mick, creators of the eccentric online persona ‘Mattress Mick’, who have their friendship challenged as they try to earn a living against the backdrop of a struggling Irish economy.
Starring: Mattress Mick. Need we say more?
Directed by: Colm Quinn
Release date: The documentary will receive a world premiere at the prestigious Hot Docs festival in Toronto next month.
