Logline
Western meets metaverse in a hilariously creative mix of styles that brings the most classic of all film genres into the 21st century.
In 1870s Arizona, two charming drifters, Frank and Bruno, team up with a tough woman named Linde to search for an elusive frontier musician across various timelines and dimensions. Hot on their heels is the unscrupulous Colfax, who has a score to settle with them. And then there’s the matter of Schrödinger’s cat. This film alternates between 16mm live action, paper cutouts, hand-drawn animation, oil paintings, 8K video, collages, digital animation, and musical performances, with each type of art representing its own competing timeline.
