A Town Called Panic - The County Fair

La Foire agricole

60th TIFF: Greek Premiere

Cowboy and Indian have come up with a brilliant gift idea for Horse’s birthday, but their plan backfires and ends up in a complete disaster: they made a tiny mistake ordering fifty million bricks instead of the fifty needed, crushing their friend’s rooftop. This unfortunate event triggers off a series of wacky, often hallucinatory, adventures, in which the trio journeys to the center of the earth, wanders across icy tundra and discovers a strange aquatic world inhabited by oddball beings with pointed heads.
