THE EXPERIENCE
This modern day silent film feels like a live action cartoon, complete with slapstick comedy and humans dressed up in fuzzy beaver costumes. A crowd-favorite at festivals around the country, this is a fun one to bring your pals to. Portland-via-Europe musician Jet Black Pearl will perform a live looped accordion set.
ON SCREEN: Hundreds of Beavers
2022. Directed by Mike Cheslik. Runtime: 108 minutes. Not Rated.
In this 17th-century, supernatural silent winter epic, a drunken applejack salesman must go from zero to hero and become North America’s greatest fur trapper by defeating, yes, HUNDREDS OF BEAVERS.
ON STAGE: Jet Black Pearl
Hailing from The Netherlands, the inimitable Jet Black Pearl spent many years in France before settling in Portland, Oregon. Jet is a creator of alternative worlds filled with surreal humor and wry observations. With her loop station, she records grooves and layers of flute, vocal percussion and harmonies while squeezing one hot accordion.
