Hysterical. The "B" side of stand-up comedy in New York

Under the premise of having two characters that are difficult for any traditional comedian to portray, this documentary produced with very little money but a lot of guts follows comedians Gary Marinoff and Alan Shain in their daily lives to try to understand their peculiar sense of humor.

Wild, morally shameless and at the same time geniuses, these guys are a kind of outcasts of the New York City stand up comedy scene. A documentary to die of laughter and laugh at death.
