BONNERS FERRY — A  satire filmed in Bonners Ferry hit YouTube on Monday.

Director, writer and creator Mike Ohler has been a Bonners Ferry resident for 42 years.

Ohler stars in Major Miracles, the series of the same name.

It is a satire based on the current economic and political environment.

Ohler and his sidekick start off as Wally Street and Wiggle Bottom. Wally Street is a greedy tycoon and Wiggle Bottom is his naive, attractive secretary.

The pair have alter egos that transform them into the Super Hero and would be side kick, Major Miracles and Flower Child.

Wiggle Bottom, Flower Child is played by newcomer to Bonners Ferry 18-year-old Heather Mackay.

A drama student Heather applied for a housekeeping position at Ohler’s home only to end up with the actress position. Ohler had been searching for the right girl for quite some time.

 “I thought well if this hits off it will be good, it is for something good and helps open people’s eyes,” Mackay said. 

Ohler said Mackay comes across great on screen and that the pair make a good team — the satire’s message.

Two generations have to help each other.

“We have been going strong since February when I finally found an actress to play my sidekick,” said Ohler.

The transformation comes after Wiggle bottom hits Wally Street over the head with the book “Major Miracles” after he makes a pass at her.  This turns him into the hero who can not fly without his sidekick holding on to his cape.

The pair spoof on the political parties calling Republicans Repulicant’s and the Democrats, Dumbocrats. Their president’s name Barrack Obuma.

The satire started on Youtube on Monday and will continue to have five episodes a week.

Larry Melior is the videographer, editor and assistant director. He also is the special effects man.

The crew recently filmed an episode at the VFW senior center and included appearances from 92-year-old Shirley Linnemeyer, Stephen Moody, Laurence Bradley, Clyde Stone, Marcia Deecossette and several others living at the home.

Ohler said the project has been in his mind for more than 10 years.  He recently was able to purchase the necessary equipment to film the series with special effects and backgrounds to make it more interesting. 

Ohler will be traveling to college campuses with his series showing it to students and he hope the series will go viral on Youtube.

“We would like to use locals in our filming and whoever gets on with us now, will reap the benefits when it get famous later,” Ohler said.
