Synopsis "Happiest One!"

Meet Felicissimo, Felix, Fee. He's a happy-go-lucky, fun-loving fellow who likes a night out on the town, a good time with a woman, a cigar and a shot. For all that, he's an enterprising immigrant who works hard as a machinist, saves his money and cherishes friendship and family. He believes in America the Melting Pot, fair play and freedom. On a wintry night in Cincinnati in 1935, his world turns ugly. This gentle man (unless provoked) who bears no ill will finds himself wanted by the police, boxed in by circumstances beyond his control. A friend who could provide an alibi betrays him in his hour of need. Fearing the authorities, he becomes a man on the run. But this stranger who speaks broken English doesn't know how to behave like a fugitive. When he lands in Trump, a tiny town on the Maryland-West Virginia border, he draws attention with his Hollywood good looks, strong work ethic and zest for life -- in short, by being Fee, by being himself. Despite his problems, and with little regard for himself -- some consider him simply a fool -- he enriches those he meets in subtle and not-so-subtle ways as he confronts racism, physical and sexual abuse, and the artificial boundaries placed on the human spirit.
