Three years in the making, American: The Bill Hicks Story brings the tale of one of modern culture’s most iconic heroes to the big screen.

Much more than a comedian, Bill Hicks was and still is an inspiration to millions. His timeless comedy tackled the contradictions of America and modern life head on. But his unique gift was to tease apart the essence of religion, the dangers of unbridled government power and the double standards inherent in much of modern society, using nothing but his hilarious ideas and the uncompromising observational style that continues to resonate with successive generations.

Like many who have a strong sense of their place in history, Hicks left a large unseen legacy; his collection of video recordings and hundreds of photographs and these became the starting point for this feature-length animated documentary.

Over two hours of extras including:

30 minutes of UNSEEN footage and rare clips from Bill's career
Bill's personal audio journals
Trailers and audience reactions
Six deleted animation scenes
Featurettes including: Bill's family visit Abbey Road and Dominion, Q & A panel, Comedy School and Dwight in London, The Ranch and Making of Arizona Bay
