About the event
This creative and entertaining smash hit of 2024 knocked a lot of big-budget productions aside, receiving rave reviews as its popularity initially spread like wildfire through word of mouth.
A mixture of live action and animation, its wild slapstick draws from the great silent comedies of the early 1900s – but it feels and is highly original.
Jean Kayak, a drunken spirit 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 sinister creatures – all played by actors in full-sized mascot costumes – he develops increasingly complex ways to knock off the evil beavers in order to win the hand of a mischievous lover.
The antics get funnier as it goes along, sustaining a zany premise with stylistic bravura and inspired gags.
You might not have heard of it, but you’ll love it.
