Director Eric Dow brings his second documentary, exploring the behind-the-scenes of the fan fiction short film "Batman: Dead End". In 2003, commercial director Sandy Collora and friends aimed to create a low-budget demo reel, but ended up making an elaborate, widely-talked-about, and controversial short film. Despite receiving significant press and admiration, Collora's career failed to take off. This documentary features interviews with Collora, comic book legend Neal Adams, and convention stars Sean Clark, Shawn Reeves, and Jordu Schell, offering an incisive look at the short film's making and what it takes to succeed in Hollywood.
