Filmmaker Jerome Benjamin returns home to Smoky Hills, Kansas to put the finishing touches on his super action hero script. He is soon faced with suffocating resentment when his 75 year old mother, Mamma Benjamin, demands to be cast in his new film. She wants to be the SuperAction Hero. He refuses, stating that she’s not beautiful by Hollywood standards, can’t save a life and that she has arthritis. Calling upon the stars who have gone before, she devises a plan to land the role. Cleverly, she puts his life in danger to prove she can save a life and that she can be a super action hero. Will Mamma B save her son? Will Mamma B get the part?
