IRISH PREMIERE

When eccentric advertising creative André Ricciardi learns he’s dying from a disease he could have detected with a colonoscopy, he decides to document what time remains. His sobering diagnosis, enduring sense of humour, and insatiable curiosity, send him on an unexpected journey as he learns how to die happily and irreverently. Winner of the Audience Award at the Sundance Film Festival, André is an Idiot is both a comedic celebration of life, resilience and the beauty of the human experience, and a cautionary tale about listening to your doctor. A life-affirming film about death.
