AMERICAN MAYOR is about a 24-year old filmmaker turned politician attempting to become mayor of his hometown. However, to achieve this, he has two obstacles: (1) seven other people want the job and (2) he doesn’t know anything about being mayor of his hometown. This short documentary shows how a young candidate humorously works his way through the ropes of local politics, learns about city government and earns the respect of the town he grew up in. Sometimes you just gotta run for mayor.
