"Blago Blago: One Island, One Man"



So Blagojevich was convicted on one of 24 counts of being a douchebag. And now he shall achieve ultimate celebrity! He'll film a reality series from his own jail-cell island. The island will be called Blago Blago. Just like Bora Bora. And Tora Tora will perform Wild America as Blago's hair whips in the tropical winds... Coming soon to Bravo.

This short will show on Thursday, August 26 from 5-8pm in the Art Institute of Chicago's Modern Wing, gallery 189, as part of the One Minute Film Festival, hosted by Jason Simon.
