How To Start Your Own CountryJody Shapiro
Always dreamt of becoming a head of state? Easy, just start your own country! The director of this film looked up six people who did just that. They rule six unrecognized sovereign micro-nations. There’s the Republic of Molossia in Nevada, a country with six inhabitants. For laughs, they have their clocks run 39 minutes behind every other clock in the state. North Dumpling Island near New York is owned by Dean Kamen, the men who invented the Segway and who found the island’s constitution in his wine cellar. An original film that looks at what exactly makes a country a country.
