'Life, humor in many critical acts' is an epigram written by Ashleigh Brilliant, calling them Pot-Shots. He has been writing and publishing Pot-Shots in closets for over 40 years. This funny and sensible film explores his current life in Santa Barbara. The Wall Street Journal called him 'the only one in history, the only published epigrammatologist.' The film includes Pot-Shots, an interview, a fictional story in which he received a Pulitzer Prize, and Ashleigh's trip to Santa Barbara, California.
