Jean Kayak is stranded in a 19th century, surreal winter landscape with nothing but his dim wits to guide him. Fighting ruthless elements and sinister wild animals – played by people in furry costumes – Kayak develops increasingly complex schemes to become the world’s greatest fur trapper and win the hand of a mischievous, pole dancing lover. Hundreds of Beavers features cartoon violence worthy of Roadrunner / ACME industries, the stunt energy of Buster Keaton, alternative Christmas vibes and relentless, rib tickling gags.
And hundreds of beavers.
Winner of multiple international awards and voted by critics as their best cinema experience of the year.

Mark says:
At Altrincham Film Club we bring you a rich variety of cinema, one of most important being the shared experience. Hundreds of Beavers is perfectly tuned for that wonderful high point of audience participation, the joy of laughing together. Unpredictable, gleefully unhinged and cleverly bonkers. Perfect for a July evening!

Reviews:
“Cleverly bonkers, highly original, and one of the finest films of the year.” Linda Cook, Our Quad Cities.

“This gleefully unhinged excursion into intrigue, romance, and the call of the wild transcends, and transgresses, many genres with steely determination and a refined sense of absurdity.” Andrea Chase, Killer Movie Reviews.

“Hundreds of Beavers is an immaculately constructed, gloriously bizarre, wholly unique tribute to that basest of comedy pleasures, made by people whose imagination seemingly knows no bounds.” Callie Petch, Little White Lies.
