MASA’s Sept. 24 Los Angeles Screening of Idiocracy UPDATE!

UPDATE FROM MASA: We are pleased to announce director and stars Mike Judge, Terry Crews and Dax Shepard will be attending the Los Angeles screening event of “Idiocracy” on September 24.

“It’s the right movie specifically because of this election cycle,” said Shepard (Co-Founder of MASA). “More generally, it’s relevant because of the deterioration of media and the strategy to garner clicks rather than provide information, and also the proliferation of misinformation through social media, all make what fictionally took place over 500 years in ‘Idiocracy’ seem to be taking place over a much shorter period in America today.”

The upcoming screening co-hosted with partners Eat|See|Hear will be taking place on September 24 at the Echo Park Tennis Courts and Baseball field. In addition to the “unofficial Idiocracy reunion,” TRDMRK (DJ Nu-Mark from Jurassic 5 & Slimkid3 formerly of Pharcyde) will be performing alongside DJ Diabetic (aka Shepard Fairey) prior to the screening. Proceeds from the event will benefit the Young Literati of the Library Foundation of Los Angeles.
