In the film, “’The World’s Most Hated Band’, notorious rappers Insane Clown Posse, find themselves as unwitting warriors for the First Amendment after they take on the FBI following the classification of all one million of their fans as gang members. With the help of the ACLU, who filed a federal lawsuit against the FBI, the band fights to uncover the reasons behind the designation and get removed from the gang list as their fans begin losing their jobs, have their children put into protective custody, and face jail time — all because of their musical tastes.”
Check out a sneak peek at the film in which ICP perform a peaceful protest at the Lincoln Memorial.
The United States of Insanity was directed by Tom Putnam & Brenna Sanchez, the award-winning filmmakers behind the hit documentary “Burn”, and produced through their company TBVE Films and with Public House Films in association with Hideout Pictures and Realization Films.
“Our goal is to put the audience through our own paces of discovery during the seven years we filmed with ICP, their fans, their lawyers, and the government agencies pursuing them,” said Tom Putnam. “ICP’s extensive archive of music videos, home movies, documentaries and feature films are layered throughout our movie as well, helping us paint a unique story of two high school dropouts achieved their own American dream while bringing people along for the ride during the seven years we’ve been filming ICP and their fans as they fight for their lives against the FBI.”
