Two Shows: April 12th & 16th

 IN THIS 19TH century, supernatural winter epic, a drunken applejack salesman must go from zero to hero and become the greatest fur trapper by defeating hundreds of beavers. A modern-day silent film in which all animals are played by puppets or people wearing mascot costumes, this is a rare concoction that’s part Funniest Home Videos, part Buster Keaton, and part Looney Tunes. It has to be seen to be believed.

“If Guy Maddin made a live action Warner Brothers Looney Tunes cartoon with the structure of a video game it would come out something like HUNDREDS OF BEAVERS, an absolutely brilliant and hilarious example of DIY independent filmmaking.” – Laura Clifford, Reeling Reviews

“Part live action, part animation, part guys in animal suits, this is a love letter to silent comedy that embraces the defiant glee of art cinema and distills it into something so thoroughly pure […], it is surely hard not to fall in love with it.” – Alexandra Heller-Nicholas, AWFJ.com
