ANDRÉ IS AN IDIOT

Documentary Competition
Back To Film Guide
New York Premiere

Documentary Feature | USA | 2025 | English | 88 minutes


Unexpected, irreverent, and absurdly funny, ANDRÉ IS AN IDIOT is a wildly life-affirming film about death. When André, a brilliant idiot, learns he''s dying from a disease he could have detected with a colonoscopy, he teams up with director Tony Benna to document his final journey. André approaches mortality with his trademark humor and curiosity, determined to learn how to die both happily and ridiculously. Winner of the Sundance Audience Award for US Documentary, ANDRÉ IS AN IDIOT is a celebration of resilience, inappropriate humor, and the beauty of fully embracing the human experience—even at its end.

 


A Q&A with director Tony Benna is expected to follow both screenings.
