Too Much Sugar is a 2026 American documentary film directed and edited by Robert Greene. It follows Ryan “Holli-wood” Hollinger, a formerly incarcerated amateur MMA fighter and father of six in Moberly, Missouri as he tries to keep his family together.

Production

According to Robert Greene, the film is the next step in the collaborative, therapeutic documentary cinema developed by he and his filmmaking team, primarily his long time producer Bennett Elliott and oft-collaborator Robert Kolodny. The film was shot in and around the town of Moberly, Missouri over the course of the year. Throughout the film the seasons change as the family continues to struggle through their daily lives.

The film finds Robert Greene continuing down the path of utilizing therapy and collaboration as a cinematic tool.

The film was shot using bare bones equipment and staging scenes with natural light, mirrors, foil, mylar and construction site work lights. Producer and cinematographer Robert Kolodny stated "Too Much Sugar was shot using tools of necessity and limitation, and this is a good thing. A joyous thing. We had no budget for this film — not hyperbolic, quite literal."

The title comes from when Holliger was a hyperactive child and adolescent, "having fights on every street corner" and his mother told him , "Boy, you have too much sugar".
