Meet Tony Vicar

failed rockstar-turned-DJ, small-town curmudgeon, and ... miracle worker?

Reduced to DJing rural weddings, Tony Vicar feels the bite of failure. A frustrated and failed musician, unable to discern why he has not ascended to stardom, his only defence is to see the world through the lens of gallows humour, absurdism, and black comedy. At his lowest moment he meets former exotic dancer Jacquie O, and they begin a strange and unlikely courtship.

When the pair come upon a fatal car accident, Vicar gives aid to a woman who's barely clinging to life. His nearly miraculous ministrations succeed, and his actions become big news. But what Vicar calls luck is seen as something more magical by everyone else, rocketing him from complete unknown to massive celebrity to legend. Along the way he attracts the attention of dangerous siren Serena, who makes an outrageous play to take Vicar for her own. In this rollicking farce, Tony Vicar will finally have to face the consequences of his enduring dream of celebrity.
