Hundreds of Beavers
2022
Synopsis
In the nineteenth century, a drunken applejack salesman loses his business in a fire and finds himself stranded in the wilderness. Facing starvation, he must survive a surreal winter landscape overrun by beavers, and devise clever traps to stay alive and win the hand of a mischievous lover.
Editorial
One hazard hides another in Mike Cheslik’s boldly lo-fi comedy, which tracks its hapless hero across a wintry cartoon-scape. Retrofitting video-game cadences to the practical genius of silent-era slapstick, this uproariously loopy film opens up a brave new world of sight gags and stuntwork.
