Search and Destroy is a comedic modern Odyssey: a Homeric hero's journey across the great American Landscape in the late 1980's - the closing of the "decade of greed." Martin Mirkheim's loveably bumbling quest for the film rights to an inspiring new-age self help novel starts as a virtuous and well-intentioned dream, but quickly consumes him as he partners with a seductively sophisticated business partner. As Martin pursues his dream at all costs, he finds himself resorting to deceit, blackmail, and fraud, and an honorably sought movie deal gives way to a dangerous drug trade. The essence of the 80's, fast paced and energetic - a tale of innocence lost and success gained.
