Visionary Iraq

by Gabriel Abrantes & Benjamin Crotty, 2008

– Democracy is just so many lies.
– Baby...
– I just don’t know if democracy is possible anymore... at least in Iraq.

Channeling the Kuchar brothers, Gabriel Abrantes and Benjamin Crotty play all the roles within a Portuguese family whose incestuous children – a son with Justin Bieber’s hair (Crotty) and an adopted Angolan daughter (Abrantes) – have joined the army and are soon to ship out for a tour of Iraq.
