DESCRIPTION:“Stupidity” hits America  US Premiere in San Francisco  “JACKASS FOR 
 INTELLECTUALS”    Stupidity, an action-packed, comedic feature 
 documentary on the urgent issue of human stupidity, opens in San Francisco 
 March 19th at the Roxie Cinema.    The film recently won “Best 
 Documentary” at the Atlantic City Film Festival and attempts to answer 
 the question of how, when humanity is so advanced, can ignorance and 
 stupidity be so rampant?  The Montreal Gazette said “Stupidity proves to 
 be hysterical” calling it one of the year’s best docs.  The Calgary Sun 
 said the film “is one astute piece of filmmaking, as entertaining as it 
 is enlightening.”  Montreal’s Le Devoir said, “Stupidity is a 
 bombastic, high energy and comic buffet of weirdness.” Stupidity was the 
 number 1 ticket seller at both the Just for Laughs Comedy Festival and the 
 Hot Docs Documentary festival.   Amazingly   Stupidity, with a modest 
 budget of $125k, is the first film to deal directly with the issue of human 
 stupidity. Among other topics, the film probes the question of US President 
 Bush’s alleged willful ignorance from both sides of the question.  
 Stupidity reveals:   Very little is know about human stupidity   The 
 shocking origins of the words “moron”, “imbecile” and “idiot.”  
  Stupidity is fueled by strong belief systems, and smart people are often 
 the stupidest.   The academic world has studiously avoided the topic of 
 stupidity.  http://www.trailervision.com  TRAILERVISION  416-926-8886  -30-
