If someone ever told me that a cartoon frog would strongly influence one of the most important presidential election ever, I would of said '' Florida '' in a very sarcastic way. 

Well, it happened. Pepe the frog happened and this movie will tell you how everything went down.

Feels Good Man is a fresh documentary where we follow Matt Furie, creator of the comic-book ''Boy's Club'' and Pepe the frog, as he tells us from A to Z how his own little creation started from being so innocent to now being one of the biggest symbol of white supremacy groups .

To start, I'm not on 4Chan. A friend of mine is just crazy about it so he knew the story of Pepe and the willingness of controlling the election to put a real life meme in the White House. Unlike me who had no idea, this entire film was jaw-dropping.
