Joel Gilbert’s new documentary feature film “There’s No Place Like Utopia” is springboarding from a sensational debut weekend, with plans to reach new audiences around the country, starting immediately.

“I’m happy to report ‘Utopia’ had a wildly successful opening weekend in Denver,” Gilbert told WND. “We took in $31,710, making it the No. 1 per screen average grossing film in the USA for the weekend!

“The enthusiasm in the audiences was incredible, a standing ovation at every screening,” Gilbert continued. “One group even came back again with American flags!”

“We are now expanding in Colorado and then Houston, shooting for a national release on Labor Day,” Gilbert reported.

Beginning Friday, Aug. 1, “There’s No Place Like Utopia” will expand to Westminster, Highland Ranch and Golden, Colorado, while on Aug. 15, the film will open in three theaters in the Houston, Texas, area.

As WND reported, Gilbert takes his viewers on a journey of discovery across America, emulating the style of the highly successful Michael Moore films, the leftist filmmaker who currently holds the distinction of having produced the highest-grossing documentary in film history.

In his new film, Gilbert depicts Barack Obama as “the Wizard” in the Land of Oz.

“The fundamental lesson of the Wizard of Oz is that there is no wizard.” Gilbert said.

“Obama has made promise after promise that have all turned out to be empty, all turned out to be lies. The people I met who supported him were literally living in dungeons in the witch’s castle, everything had changed for the worse – Detroit, South Side Chicago, Newark. Fifty years of progressive control over these cities demonstrated that no one was progressing, they were all regressing.”
