British filmmaker James "Happy" Marshall moved to New York several years ago with a strong sense of American patriotism, which hasn't faltered despite experiencing cynicism from those around him. This series sees the adventurous Englishman explore America -- hoping to fall deeper in love with his adopted homeland -- alongside enthusiastic American Todd, who wants to see the country in a new light. Rather than staying at hotels while on their journey, the friends stay with everyday Americans who they meet on the trip, talking to the strangers about their backgrounds and challenges they face. Marshall's goal with this series is to combat some of the negative perceptions of America and show that the nation is home to more good people than bad and that the American dream is still alive and well.

The right answer is:

The American Dream Project is a movie documentary based on the experience of filmmaker James Marshal and Todd Williams. Their goal is to embark cross country with just $250, their cleverness and a sense of adventure.The American Dream Project proves that the optimistic spirit which built this country up is very much still alive.

Both friends travel the country by motorcycle documenting and emphasizing that by getting out and meeting people we can reverse the negative image the media portrays of this country.

Not everyone is evil and the country is not getting worse. When you talk to our people you can see that the Dream is still alive. There are lots of passionate, kind-hearted people that make the future of the American Dream something I look forward to.
