The incredibly true story of two men, one international conspiracy, and thousands of Pez dispensers.
This incredible fish-out-of-water story follows the adventures of Steve Glew, a small-town Michigan man who boards a plane for Eastern Europe soon after the fall of the Berlin Wall. His mission is to locate a secret factory that holds the key to the most desired and valuable Pez dispensers. If he succeeds, he will pull his family out of debt and finally be able to quit his job of 25 years. Steve becomes the hero of his own adventure, smuggling the rarest of goods into the U.S. and making millions in the process. It was all magical, until his arch-nemesis, The Pezident, decided to destroy him. [85 mins; documentary; English]
"An unforgettable David vs. Goliath story." — Nick Allen, RogerEbert.com
"The Pez Outlaw is odd: odd characters, odd story, and the oddest of sweet confections. It's part character study, part corporate-espionage thriller, and part exposition of a very specific flavor of candy-coated nerds." — Rod Paddock, Austin Chronicle
"It’s a hoot with a bit of heart, and if you can accept that the main character’s actions ultimately hurt nobody — with the possible exception of a few Pez executives — its fizzy pleasures and compact running time are easy to enjoy." — Dan Fienberg, Hollywood Reporter
