The plot of the movie revolves around the creators of a new television channel called "Tunnel Vision", which is notably free of censorship, who are tried by the Supreme Court, who wishes to shut down the channel due to its widespread negative effects on the population of the United States. The movie consists of commercials, shorts, and trailers for fictional movies that are usually not connected to one another.
