HUNDREDS OF BEAVERS: A NORTHWOODS CHRISTMAS
Special Features: Tickets $8!
The highest-rated comedy on Letterboxd’s increasingly influential "Year in Review" list for 2024, HUNDREDS OF BEAVERS became the unlikely independent film success story of last year. In a supernatural, 19th-century winter landscape, drunken applejack salesman Jean Kayak faces ruthless elements and sinister creatures — all played by actors in full-size mascot costumes — with nothing but his dim wits to guide him. When he crosses paths with a local merchant and his mischievous daughter, Kayak must go from zero to hero and become North America’s greatest fur trapper in order to win her hand — by developing increasingly complex traps to capture hundreds of beavers. An incredible feat of DIY filmmaking, HUNDREDS OF BEAVERS is a hysterical live-action cartoon brimming with the logic of a video game (DON’T STARVE, for one) and packaged in a silent film aesthetic. With a gag literally every minute, it will have you chortling with delight. DIR/SCR Mike Cheslik; SCR/PROD Ryland Brickson Cole Tews; PROD Sam Hogerton, Kurt Ravenwood, Matt Sabljak. U.S., 2022, b&w, 108 min. NOT RATED
