After several failed attempts to break into the film industry, aspiring actor and screenwriter Laz Rojas decided he would try to catch Hollywood's attention by creating the most ambitious demo reel of all time.

In the latest episode of OUTSIDER, VICE tracks down Rojas, who is now living in unstable conditions in Los Angeles, to uncover the mystery behind the man, his work, and its unlikely rediscovery by cult film fanatics.
