First of three "This Is America" films by Romano Vanderbes where the director explores those wild and crazy Americans and the ridiculous things they do! Pretty tame by today's standards, and probably not very shocking in 1977 either. Sexual freedom, radical religions, and Indianapolis 500 are a few of the topics presented here. Check out This Is America Part 2 and America Exposed for the rest of the trilogy.
