In 2018, after 40 years of fighting against oppression, homelessness, and corporate greed in the U.S. and in his native Canada, D.O.A. frontman, activist, and cultural politician Joey “Shithead” Keithley decided to turn art into life and run against the outspoken Mayor of Burnaby (population: 250,000+), Derek Corrigan. Against all odds—and with only a $7000 campaign budget—Keithley won a city councilor seat in Burnaby, BC, that year and helped to unseat the entrenched five-term Corrigan who once famously said, “I would never bend over to give a homeless person a dime because he might steal my watch.” Will Keithley’s message and DIY approach to campaigning resonate with voters in the upcoming Burnaby election of 2022? Win or lose, we will document him every step of the way as he campaigns for a second term. (Directed by Scott Carpenter, 79 min., USA, 2024).
