Documentary about the
Royal Order of Jesters, an invitation only
Order of Shriners. Features hundreds of examples of
Jester artwork from dozens of
Courts over decades, plus news articles detailing a forgotten but major debacle from 25 years ago, as well as a host of other topics, including a segment on SOBIB.
Using extensive documentation, the film asks the question: Why does a "gentlemen's club" reside at the heart of
American Freemasonry?
