Or do you?

The venue is small, dank and overcrowded. Exposed lightbulbs hang from ceiling - barely illuminating the dated and tattered walpaper. An amp is plugged into a ridiculous daisy-chain of surge protectors. This place violates every fire code.

It starts as a good show. It ends in a fiery inferno.

The Young Turks, one of the most popular online news shows in the world, has amassed a YouTube network consisting of millions of subscribers and billions of views. But that wasn't always the case. MAD AS HELL documents the tumultuous, at times hilarious and altogether astonishing trajectory of Cenk Uygur, The Young Turks' main host and founder, as he traverses from unknown Public Access TV host to internet sensation by way of YouTube. When he ventures into national television by landing the 6 PM time slot on MSNBC, Cenk's uncensored brand of journalism is compromised as he becomes a thorn in the side of traditional news media; his unwavering dedication to speaking the truth puts him at the very nexus of the battle between new and old media, and makes MAD AS HELL not only entertaining, but incredibly timely as well.

When their dad dies unexpectedly, estranged siblings Russell, Jane and their adopted brother, Alex, come home to tend to his remains. Though unable to spend a single day without bickering, they are able to agree on one thing: No one wants to keep the ashes. With little guidance and mounds of resentment stalling their every move, the siblings must work together to achieve a proper goodbye. The man who tore them apart brings them closer together as they discover what it means to be a family again.

DEAD DAD is a feature film created by friends. It was shot in the greater Los Angeles and San Diego areas over the course of one month. Produced entirely from the funds of a successful Kickstarter campaign, the production embodies the independent filmmaking spirit. With limited means and an abundance of passion, the cast and crew devoted their free time to complete the film and bring DEAD DAD to life.
