Reigning princes of trash cinema, brothers Lenny and Harpo Guit return to FFFA after their gross-out feature debut Mother Schmuckers (FFFA 2021).

Their latest agent of chaos is Armande Pigeon (Maria Cavalier-Bazan), a twenty-something compulsive gambler who never seems to have lady luck on her side. She’s like the lovechild of Frances from Frances Ha and Howie from Uncut Gems.
One night, Armande teams up with Ronnie and suddenly everything changes – they win it all. But when you hit a winning streak, you have to – in the wise words of Kenny Rogers – know when to hold ’em, know when to fold ’em…

In true Guit-brothers style, Heads or Fails is frenetically energetic, painfully funny and gleefully unhinged. But it’s also a loving tribute to the plucky hustlers in a young generation fighting to keep above water amid increasingly precarious circumstances.
