My Heart is an Idiot

With FOUND Magazine's Davy Rothbart in attendance, along with director David Meiklejohn!!

"My Heart Is An Idiot" is a romantic documentary that spans two years and over a hundred cities. The film captures the road-tripping lifestyle of Davy Rothbart (FOUND Magazine, "This American Life," and frequent GQ contributor) who looks for love in all the right places, and in all the wrong ways.

Climb in the van with Davy as he tours North America promoting his magazine FOUND, a virally popular and iconic printed collection of discarded notes and photographs. Along the way, Davy seeks advice on his tortured love life from people he meets (Zooey Deschanel, Ira Glass, Newt Gingrich, Davy’s mom, and others), and attempts to follow that advice, with comic and surprising results.

The first feature-length film project from filmmaker David Meiklejohn, "My Heart Is An Idiot" weaves together multiple stories to illustrate the joys and dangers of romantic pursuit.
