Fifth Annual Toofy Film Festival – September 13 & 14 – Boulder Theater – Boulder
Now in its fifth year, the Annual Toofy Film Festival returns to the Boulder Theater this Saturday, Sept 13 and Sunday, Sept 14, featuring a weekend film, fashion and music.
In true Toofy tradition, there are a number of short program features planned for the weekend, including Mike Judge’s Animation Show that features “Key Lime Pie,” a student short by Trevor Jimenez, a graduate of Sheridan Animation program, about, you guessed it, Key Lime Pie, but with a film noir twist.
Then there’s Best of Toofy Showcase, where you get to revisit your favorite independent shorts from years past and check out the ones you missed.
Saturday’s feature film, “The Fix,” is set in L.A. with a host of seedy characters that are on a race of a different kind, taking the streets from Beverly Hills to Watts. The goal: for the doc filmmakers Milo and Bella to transport Milo’s brother from jail to rehab by 8pm. The risk: if they miss the deadline, Milo’s brother spends three years in jail.
Then the film-meets-fashion part of the program takes over Saturday night, with Denver Fashion and brainboxCREATIVE running the show.
When Sunday comes around, the feature film “The Adventures of Power” seems to be a sure thing ticket to giggle land. If you missed the recent Air Guitar Championship, fear not my rocker, mulleted friend, you can “still rock.” In the Nepoleon, underdog vein, Power has always dreamed of being a killer drummer, but never got further than his own imagination. When his air-drumming takes him to a land of other air-drumming pros, his whole world begins to turn in a whole new way.
