MF DOOM played a homeless man in a 2001 indie comedy and nobody talks about it.
From first-time writer/director Justin Lomba comes a dark comedy about what happens when a young man finds himself in over his head and puts his future in the hands of all the wrong characters. Ian Lester (Jacob Sirof) is having a good week. His part-time job as a filmmaker is starting to gain momentum while his day job offers an opportunity for love. All of the pieces for success seem to be in place as Ian's agent Matthew Skinner (Nate Cohen) prepares a deal to set the box office ablaze. With a little help from outlandish local film critic Jane Muir (Glorinda Marie), his offbeat friends John (Scott Hastings) and Sabine (Elena Gardella), and an unusual homeless man (Viktor Vaughn), Ian's destiny comes into sharp focus.

Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Viktor Vaughn was one of MF DOOM's many aliases; this rare on-screen appearance predates his mainstream recognition by years.
The film vanished almost entirely until DOOM's 2020 death sparked archival interest in his non-musical appearances.
