"We have one shot left!" Factory 25 has revealed the official trailer for a hilarious new indie creation called
Microbudget, a mockumentary making fun of
indie films and the current state of the filmmaking industry. This first premiered in 2024 at a few film festivals and will be out to watch later this month - in NY & LA at first then on VOD. A comedy feature about an aspiring director who recklessly moves himself and his nine-months-pregnant actress wife from Iowa to LA to shoot a low-budget indie movie and sell it to a streamer for a "f***-ton of money." With a cast of comedy MVPs,
Micro Budget follows Terry's disastrous attempts to make a disaster movie, and his inability to serve a decent lunch. Critics say that it's "a rambunctious comedy with the same absurdist flow as something like

Brandon Micheal Hall,
Patrick Noth,
Emilea Wilson,
Nichole Sakura, plus Jordan Rock, Jon Gabrus, Bobby Moynihan, Hal Linden, Neil Casey, Maria Bamford, Mike Mitchell, Kate Flannery, Matt McCoy, Chris Parnell, and Carla Jimenez.

Yep this looks like good comedy fun with plenty of hilarious roasting. //
