synopsis
A mockumentary about would-be New York actress Lisa Picard, who hopes to get more than a fleeting taste of fame when a racy cereal commercial brings her unexpected national notoriety.

"How do they walk, dress or act?" Complicating matters even further is the fact that our objective documentarian is not so secretly hoping that this documentary about fame will help propel him to fame as well.
