SXSW 2022: 20 Movies You Need To Know About

10. The Pez Outlaw

If you're in the market for a stranger-than-fiction documentary that's as weird as it is entertaining, look no further than The Pez Outlaw.

Steve Glew is a small-town Michigan resident who, in the 1990s, build and lost a financial empire smuggling Pez dispensers into the United States from Eastern Europe.

At once a stunning examination of the obsessive subculture of Pez dispenser collectors and a more general rise-to-riches tale, The Pez Outlaw has a lot of fun playing up the silliness of its story, which ultimately gives way to a wider consideration of family, ownership, and the American Dream itself.

The Pez Outlaw is currently seeking distribution.
