Elvis Isn't Dead 2023 Directed by Skyler Knutzen
An Elvis impersonator struggles with his mother's worsening dementia. He finds solace in the fact she'll never forget who Elvis is.
A cult figure in the state of Iowa, Greg Suckow has become a field fixture for University of Iowa football team, the Hawkeyes. A lawyer by day, locally known as Hawkeye Elvis, Suckow's appearance each Saturday - adopting the likeness of the King - stands for more than just an act. Dressed in custom costumes crafted by his mother, who attends the games alongside him, through his Elvis persona, Suckow takes on a character burned into memory - embodying the past in a bid to slow the progression of his mother's dementia.
