By The Imposter is a documentary about the weird-but-true story of Frédéric Bourdin, a 23 year old Frenchman who convinced a grieving Texas family that he was their 16 year old son that had been missing for three years. The story is told through home video, interviews as well as reenactments. This clip features the missing boy’s mother giving insight into how she could have mistaken a complete stranger for her own son.
Allistair saw it at last year’s SxSW Film Festival and gave it the coveted Golden Pterodactyl of Editor’s Choice, and the trailer looks so intense too! The Imposter is finally coming to theaters August 24th!
