Hundreds of beavers

| Cinema Varšava

"Owls may not be what they seem, but beavers are doubly so."
1. Set in a fierce time when nature was still untamed and full of danger, this story is about an apple distiller who loses everything, finds himself bare-bottomed in the wilderness, and must gradually work his way up to being the best woodsman far and wide.

They had already drawn attention to themselves with their first feature-length project, the phantasmagoric explosion of low-cost imagery The Monster of Lake Michigan, which blended their love of classic B-movie monster movies with the style of Karl Zeman and Guy Maddin. Once again, their new release springs from the frenetic ADHD style of social media audiovisualism, this time fusing it with the aesthetics of classic slapstick features and the unbridled logic of the Looney Tunes animated slapstick series, while also getting their feet wet in furry fandom. Equipped with a spellbinding DIY creativity, they restore to cinema a dimension of hilarious entertainment and sensation capable of evoking unadulterated amazement.

This infectiously original slapstick for the new millennium will rip your guts out with its nonstop whirlwind of creative ideas and frenzied humour. The backwoodsman, the hard life he has...
