Killeen made the decision to be thorough in his endeavors and took the extra step to travel to the location of these men to get the full scoop on the stories of their lives. He faced more rejection than expected initially when extending the offer to travel to the location of his fellow Killeen's, even gambling in a poker tournament to raise funds for the film production. Killeen meets several other Jim Killen's all ranging from a priest in Ireland to a swinger in Colorado. They all have exceptionally different backgrounds and shockingly a couple of them actually favor each other in looks. Killeen focuses on the similarities of their lifestyles, in spite of their implied social contradictions. At the end of the film Killeen asks all of them questions such as "What is the purpose of life?" to things they do and do not believe in. At the end of the movie all of the Jim Killeen's meet in Killeen, TX for the 100th year celebration. They all join in on the town's celebration and share their life stories with each other. This movie exposes the common denominator of different people with different lives and shows the audience how the internet can shape our own identity. These two components provide stories and insight on the power of technology in the digital age.[4] Cast
