“A hilarious account of Karpovsky's maniacal search for success, meaning, human connection, America, and a 40-foot Paul Bunyan statue… The film has no sex, no violence, and no stars, but it doesn't need them... Moreover, it combines a good story with a compelling arc and a portrait of a real place, its people, and life's unexpected poignancies…Shot in documentary style, focused on a fictional Alex (but based on and starring the real Karpovsky), and set in real situations with real people who may or may not be acting, The Hole Story is neither feature film, documentary, or mockumentary. Perhaps it's time to start talking about ficumentaries.”
