Teenage Paparazzo

Precocious 13-year-old Austin spends days racing through Hollywood snapping sellable photos of stars such as Paris Hilton and Britney Spears. A turning point is reached when the young paparazzo shoots Adrian Grenier, figurehead of the HBO cable station and star of the Entourage series. Surprised by the professional approach of the very young stalker, Adrian begins to take an interest in the paparazzi world. When he turns the table on Austin and his colleagues, he discovers that the careers of the paparazzi are as dependent on the stars as the stars are dependent on the paparazzi. A critical view of a fame-obsessed society. (Zurich Film Festival)
