THE F WORD follows radio DJ Joe Pace, who is being forced off the air after racking up $1 million in unpaid FCC indecency fines. For his final show, Joe takes to the streets of New York to cover the protests around the Republican National Convention, discovering that the city’s politics are as diverse as its residents. Combining fictional scenes set among actual protests with documentary footage of real people, director Jed Weintrob weaves a seamless narrative about America’s struggle to find the balance between preserving national security and protecting free speech.
