THE SWISS TRAVELLER

THE SWISS TRAVELLER
By Atilla Vegh

GENRE: Comedy, Adventure
LOGLINE:


A funny looking, funnier acting, super eccentric, hyper clumsy,  uber clueless foreigner with close to zero English hosting a travel show about the USA.
But there's a twist.. 
.. there are twists.

SYNOPSIS:

The swiss traveller is a delightful half-hour comedy series spanning twelve episodes per season. It chronicles the escapades of the show's only host, Luca Wunderbaum, a Swiss Italian self-proclaimed "professional traveler," who this time sets out to present cities, geographical regions, wildlife and the people of the " Unnited Amerikan States."

In this show, you'll find the quintessential "clueless foreigner" scenario taken to even more hysterical heights since the core theme of the series revolves around capturing footage at locations that bear no relation to what the host is discussing; evidently resulting in a comedy of errors. Lots of errors.

The swiss traveller is an entertaining spoof of the classic tv travel shows and it may even contain traces of social media influencer mocking. Each episode unfurls as a self-contained story, promising a fresh and humorous adventure with every installment.

For fans of humor in the vein of Roberto Benigni's iconic zero English full eccentric wall to wall Italian characters, the absurdity of Borat's cinematic exploits, and the timeless charm of comedians like Buster Keaton, Charlie Chaplin, and Harold Lloyd, Luca's "Amerrikan" journey promises plenty of laughter.

Similar shows in this genre: Cunk on Earth, Nathan for You, Reno 911!, Hotwives of Orlando/Las Vegas, All Aussie Adventures and practically anything from Chris Lilley's brilliant mockumentaries from We can be heroes to Lunatics.
