Proving Mr. Jennings is the U.S. premiere of a politically (in)correct satire on the nature of terrorism and our response to it. In this dark and wicked comedy, a dull, middle-class man goes into the hospital for a heart transplant, but wakes up to find himself accused of attempting to detonate a suicide bomb, an act which he did not commit. Eventually, he is convinced by government bureaucrats, military leaders and anti-terrorist intelligence agents that he is, in fact, responsible for the attack. In this post-modern age of high anxiety, how could it be any other way?
