Earliest known concept art for The Birth of Alienation.
The Birth of Alienation: "Come for the Gravity Assist. Stay for the Alienation."

The Birth of Alienation is a film prank in which the historic American racist film The Birth of a Nation is temporarily replaced by a high-budget spoof version, The Birth of Alienation.

Project status

An early prototype version received substantial product placement sponsorship from Extract of Radium. EoR management approved the project for immediate production on D.W. Griffith's birthday (July 23), and hopes are high that rushes will be available for bootlegging "no later that the 2020 elections."

Production

Famed producer (and alleged arms dealer) Egon Rhodomunde is backing the project, calling it "a nightmare of a film, destined to fail on an epic scale, my absolute calling in life."

Origin

I thought of the idea and promptly documented it on the morning of July 7, 2020, in response to a Facebook post.
