The Independent is the story of one man's love of film. That man is Morty Fineman, one of the most prolific filmmakers in the business (427 films and counting), it is on the set of his 428th movie, Ms. Kervorkian where we first meet Fineman just as he discovers his funding has been cut and his production has been shut down. Seeking help from his estranged daughter Paloma (Janeane Garofalo), Fineman sets about raising the money to keep his production company going. When all seems lost, hope comes in the form of a serial killer who is prepared to sell Fineman the rights to his story...if he agrees to makes it a musical.
