Hundreds Of Beavers

Directed by Mike Cheslik
Starring Ryland Brickson Cole Tews, Olivia Graves, Doug Mancheski 

This month’s Reel Talk Presents screening—as voted by you!—is the brilliantly mad, black-and-white slapstick comedy, Hundreds of Beavers! 

Jean Kayak, a drunken applejack salesman, finds himself stranded in a surreal winter landscape with nothing but his dim wits to guide him. Against a backdrop of ruthless elements and diabolical beavers (all played by actors in full-sized mascot costumes), Kayak develops increasingly complex traps in order to become North America’s greatest fur trapper and win the hand of a mischievous lover. 

Inspired by the comedy of silent-era artists such as Charlie Chaplin and Buster Keaton, combined with the absurdity and creativity of the golden age of Looney Tunes, Hundreds of Beavers is a visually stunning slapstick spectacle that is sure to amaze, delight, and leave you splitting your sides with laughter!
