Synopsis

Homophobic rap superstar Terrier (pronounced "teh-ree-AY") is tearing up the charts with the smash hit single "Kill Faggots" off his triple-platinum album hoMOFObic. Despite protests from groups like Homosexuals Organizing a Meaningfully Outed Society (H.O.M.O.S.), homophobia is America's hottest trend.

Now Terrier plans to reach an even wider audience by releasing a follow-up single feature a sample from the deceased king of 80's hair metal -- Max Lightning's "Teri Why". But the rights to Max's song belong to his widow, the eccentric homophobe Theresa, who will only sign with Terrier on one condition: if he reunites her with her estranged son -- none other than gay rights activist Christopher Dalrymple, the leader of H.O.M.O.S.

Rising to the challenge will force Terrier to confront his dark past -- and Theresa has secrets of her own...

Homophobia

“Over da Rainbow” is a short satirical film about homophobia. In hip hop music, homophobia is rampant and legions of fans support it.
Terrier (say “The-ree-ay”) is moving up the charts at rapid speed with his new single “Kill Faggots”. He records for his own label, “homophobic” and his “Kill Faggots comes from his triple platinum label. Even with groups protesting him and is music, it does not seem that he can be stopped. In fact, homophobia seems to be taking over America.
Terrier decides to follow his success with a new record, “Teri Why written by the dead king of hair metal music, Max Lightning. There is a problem that the rights to the song are held by Lightning’s widow, Theresa, a homophobe as well. She places a condition on giving Terrier the right to record it and that is if he can reunite her with her son, Christopher Dalrymple who just happens to be the leader of H.O.M.O.S. (Homosexuals Organizing a Meanfully Outed Society).
As things happen Terrier is forced to confront his own past and Theresa has a few secrets of her own. Loaded with extras (deleted scenes, bloopers, a documentary, and much more) this is a film that you do not want to miss.
