Sinossi
Mesmerizing and provocative, CON MAN explores the remarkable life of James Arthur Hogue, a brilliant impostor who fabricated a spectacular series of fictional identities and successfully conned his way into Princeton University.
Filmmaker Jesse Moss - a high school class mate - interviews the impostor's close friends, college roommate, prison cellmate, and ultimately Hogue himself, who speaks on camera for the first time ever about his crimes. Moss also gained access to previously sealed police records, including Hogue's fraudulent Princeton application and an audio recording of Hogue's police interrogation.
CON MAN is an intimate and disturbing profile of an elusive impostor who dared to outrun his past in pursuit of his own dark version of the American Dream.
