Synopsis
Carlos Gutierrez is an Elvis impersonator with a young daughter, which he almost never sees. His complete belief in his reincarnation of Elvis leads to a complete denial of his own reality. By night, in Buenos Aires' glamorous celebrity-impersonator scene, he is a star. By day, he is a dead-end factory employee. Feeling more connected to the King than his own family, Gutierrez continues to retreat from reality until a tragic accident forces him to accept his real-world responsibilities.

Reviews
ROLLING STONE : 4.5/5. VARIETY By JOHN ANDERSON: 'The Last Elvis' is a solid, likable and consistently engaging fantasy. Production values, especially the Elvis songs performed by McInerny, are tops. -
