[title]The Best Worst Film Ever
[description] The recent @@DEMONYMADJECTIVE@@ film "The Broom" has gained immense popularity due to its poor, nonsensical script and exaggerated performances, making crowds love the film for its unintended comedic aspect. Its notoriety has risen so high, that it has been recently chosen by @@DEMONYMPLURAL@@ to represent the country in the @@REGION@@ International Film Festival.
[validity] The nation has at least moderate culture and youth rebelliousness, no nudism
[choice 1] "Absolutely unthinkable!" exclaims your enraged Minister of Culture in a tasteful bespoke outfit. "This would be a public shame for @@NAME@@! People watch this film to laugh at how bad it is, and we would allow it to represent our nation's cultural wealth? We should be showcasing our cinematographic intricacy instead with fine art pieces such as the montage of otherworldly scenery in the avant-garde epic 1002: A @@DEMONYMADJECTIVE@@ Iliad."
[result 1] the Ministry of Culture may only approve a film produced in the country if deemed "high art"
[choice 2a, nation is socialist] "A laughable film about a broom or some degenerate bourgeois mockery? Is this what our glorious socialist nation has to offer in @@REGION@@?" interjects an annoyed Minister of Propaganda in full party uniform. "Our presence in an international contest can only be considered a success for the State if it furthers the socialist political cause –leave it to my commissars and we will prepare a masterpiece of appraisal for our Motherland!"
[result 2a] the only audience for @@DEMONYMADJECTIVE@@ films are students in the mandatory Socialist Discourse class
[choice 2b, nation is capitalist] "A laughable film about a broom or some barely comprehensible balderdash? Is this what we have to offer in @@REGION@@?" interjects an annoyed Minister of Industrial Lobbyism in a sleek business suit. "Our presence in an international contest can only be considered a success for the country’s economy if it serves the interests of @@DEMONYMADJECTIVE@@ business –leave it to my marketing team and we will prepare a masterpiece integrating the Arts with products placement!"
[result 2a] international audiences watching @@DEMONYMADJECTIVE@@ films are dismayed when the 3-hour ad session is not followed by an actual film
[choice 3] "I do not agree to my work being criticised in such harsh manners by bureaucrats devoid of any actual understanding of filmgoers" replies condescendingly @@ANIMAL@@ @@RANDOMLASTNAME@@, the infamous director of The Broom in his embroidered dressing gown. "The audience enjoys my film because it talks to their hearts through its nuanced, ironic black comedy. It meticulously reviews human life and universal values through the journey of the protagonist, a wooden utensil. And this is the kind of @@DEMONYMADJECTIVE@@ culture all people can relate with."
[result 3] the nation's movies are widely appreciated as international laughing stock
[choice 4] "Oh, we should definitely keep the film, but also pass our desired messages after some minor alterations…" says military researcher "Doc" @@RANDOMFIRSTNAME@@ Ludovico sardonically, in a suspiciously clean lab coat. "My newest experimental technique involves the insertion of brief hypnotising snippets combined with spraying of hallucinogenic substances into the air, followed by subliminal messages in the film’s dialogue and soundtrack… Oh yes, soon we’ll be able to turn a whole auditorium at once into ultra-violent agents of @@NAME@@ and then we–" @@HIS@@ own maniac laugh interrupts the sentence.
[result 4] the viewing of @@DEMONYMADJECTIVE@@ films is banned by most international conventions
[choice 5] "Maybe you people have taken this all too seriously for a simple submission to a film festival?" asks your severely overworked secretary in the same outfit as in the past 4 weeks. "Let's be honest here, people voted this movie as a jocular candidate. What's the worst that could happen if we send it as is? Our neighbours in @@REGION@@ will mention that one time @@NAME@@ had this very funny film, before eventually forgetting it entirely. What else could possibly happen, right?"
