April 2023 Officially Selected Films

Escape Artists: A police officer is feeling depressed on his birthday until a few neighborhood comedians trick him into attending his birthday celebration by using graffiti to attract him to each location. It is written with the same type of humor as the three stooges. It's a silent film, nice for festivals with physical, expressive comedic actors.
