In this supernatural epic inspired by the slapstick comedy of the 1920s and 1930s, a drunken applejack salesman must go from zero to hero and become the greatest fur trapper by defeating hundreds of beavers! Jean Kayak 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—Kayak develops increasingly complex traps in order to win the hand of a mischievous lover. [108 min; comedy, action; English]
"This joyously silly micro-budget period comedy plays out like a live-action Looney Tunes episode." — Patrick Cremona, Radio Times
"What gives Hundreds of Beavers its special quality is the mixture of no-budget, seemingly haphazard gonzo energy and the well-tooled jokes that can only come from rigorous planning and effervescent ingenuity." — Ian Freer, Time Out
"There is nothing like Hundreds of Beavers in cinemas right now, and there hasn’t been something like it in a very long time." — Matthew Razak, Escapist Magazine
