Big business, snapping fingers, and nationalistic freak-outs are just a few of the highlights in the trailer for the new micro-budget film "Slackjaw," which premieres at this year's iteration of the Locarno International Film Festival. Front and center of Zach Weintraub's new film is "The Chris Gethard Show" regular Robert Malone and behind the camera is the director's regular, brilliant collaborator, Nandan Rao ("Green," "Hawaiian Punch"). Take a peek at the synopsis: A mildly absurd bromantic dramedy about the path to personal responsibility amidst the divisive fog of a politicized landscape. For the uninitiated, Zach's been at it for awhile, notching four films on his belt since 2010. His first, "Bummer Summer," chronicles a love triangle and is especially notable for being one of the very few films in a sea of many to get young love, longing, and ennui right.
