The Trophy King

1/33 Productions

THE TROPHY KING follows Trip Mahoney, a small-town trophy salesman, during his bungling attempt to pull off a heist. Long story short, Trip's brilliantly ignorant ideas snowball into a dumpster fire. He is a man entangled in desperation, who stumbles into criminality, unraveling a perilous yet comical narrative. The film aims to deliver a visual experience that authentically mirrors the absurdity and danger of the our hero's misadventures. I sincerely hope the audience enjoys the film and can recognize the dedicated effort we put into making it an entertaining experience.

Tighe Boudreaux Kellner began his directing career in the sophisticated state of New Jersey... making films that draw on the contrasting tones of suspense and comedy. With a performance-driven focus which displays his characteristically satirical humor, his composed imagery results in an eccentric blend that often leaves a lasting impression.
