Directed by Paul Escandon, The Most Canceled Man in America explains what happened to Nick Fuentes (a controversial political activist) and his movement (America First) after attending the Jan, 6th Capitol incident. Dissatisfied with the election outcome, Fuentes and some conservatives protested because they claim the 2020 presidential election was rigged.
What was the response by the federal government? He was canceled. Viewers find out Fuentes was placed on a no-fly list and lost all of his money. He was also banned by all social media platforms and most banks. Fuentes is not even allowed to use online payment systems such as PayPal.
Unlike most current documentary feature films, the movie isn't misleading, it's an honest portrayal of the life of an eccentric political commentator who is being treated unfairly. But this is actually the second documentary to come out in 2022 about Fuentes.
In February, Louis Theroux's Forbidden America confronted Fuentes and the far-right ecosystem. Predictably, It was met with praise from mainstream critics.
But Escandon's sympathetic insight into Fuentes works better than Theroux's dishonest journalism. Escandon humanizes the outlandish Theroux depiction of Fuentes.
Even if viewers aren't charmed by Fuentes and his meta-ironic humor, they will be alarmed to see the current status of free speech in America.
