The narrative follows George Haskel, a retired professor who establishes an institute to champion dullness against the backdrop of America's celebrity-obsessed culture. His initiative attracts a diverse group of intellectuals, evolving into a political movement called the Authentic Party, which gains 8 million followers. As influential figures like Bill Maher and Woody Allen join the cause, the movement escalates into a confrontation with the White House, raising the stakes for a potential shift toward authenticity or a continuation of the status quo.
