Exclusive: Paris-based genre specialist Reel Suspects has boarded sales on Gary Huggins’ debut comedy feature Kick Me about a school counsellor whose night takes a comedic-nightmarish turn when he visits Kansas City, Kansas (Kck).
Santiago Vasquez plays the counsellor, who downplays his fears about visiting Kck, to please a prize student who hails from the city, the same night he has promised to surprise his daughter with a pet rabbit after a school concert.
As he crosses the state line from Kansas City, Missouri, his well-intentioned trip unravels when he falls into the crosshairs of a local warlord, setting him on a bizarre trip across the city.
Kick Me is Huggins’s debut feature.
It has taken the filmmaker, who hails from and lives in Kck, a decade to complete the work after it was originally shot in 2012 and selected for the Gotham (then IFP) Narrative Lab in 2013.
