Terry Chiu, 2022, Canada, 175 mins

An experimental Tokusatsu-flavored fantasy epic. The three-hour film follows a lo-fi storytelling aesthetic that pushes the boundaries of independent creation. Proceeds from this screening support director Terry Chiu’s crowdfunding campaign for his upcoming feature, A.A.A. LOVE WILL REIGN AGAIN.

In the destroyed present, the aggressively badass Keikei (Xinkun Dai) and her lackadaisical white-shirted pal Rev (Ging Yu Kei) wander the wasteland looking for their friend Spike (Matias Rittatore), in between running into the confrontational Lady Moondrift (Pei Yao Xu) and her Candy Ass Kickers (They kick candy ass!!!), or the deadly Psycho on The Radio - whose kill count is like into the 900s - with the promise that one day, they'll get all the answers to their problems from the Embodiment of Angst.
