This special one off screening is the first time Australian audiences have a chance to see this great indie animated gem.

Julian Glander has made a name for himself with his distinctive, colorful 3D animation style, which he’s showcased everywhere from video games to the pages of The New Yorker . Now, he brings his unique aesthetic to his first feature film, a visionary work that transforms the abandoned swimming pools and construction sites of suburban Florida into a surreal wonderland where the magical is mundane and the mundane magical.

Set in the liminal period between Christmas and New Year’s, the story follows the adventures of Billy 5000 ( Jack Corbett ), a teenage gig worker with a rise-and-grind mindset whose quest to make $5,000 is derailed by the appearance of a gelatinous little dude from outer space. Using the power of lo-fi musical numbers and deadpan comedy, Billy must save the creature and his family from the evil schemes of the Dolphin Groves Juice Company. The voice cast — which also includes Julio Torres, Sarah Sherman, Joe Pera, Cole Escola and Elsie Fisher — Is a who’s who of weirdo comedy all-stars, adding to the charmingly strange vibe. — Frederic Boyer

Brought to you by Zero Brow Film Club a not-for-profit film society that explores all ends of the cinema spectrum, all proceeds of the screening go direct to the filmmaker.
