Abel Raises Cain
directed by Jenny Abel & Jeff Hockett

82 min • 2005 • USA • English • Color

As far back as she can remember, Jenny Abel has seen her father appear on television under a variety of aliases, fooling news reporters and talk show hosts. He was continually plotting new ways to infiltrate the media with one of his seemingly absurd causes.

Abel Raises Cain attempts to explain the true motives behind Alan's hoaxes and, in the process, allows for a different perspective on how the media operates. The film echoes Abel's ultimate message — that you can't believe everything you see, read or hear.
