TWO SISTERS ARE WHISKED AWAY TO A FARM UTOPIA IN A MODERN TAKE ON THE SOVIET TRACTOR MUSICAL.
My Wesleyan thesis film stemmed out of a love and fascination for film musicals. We follow a girl who wants to live inside a musical— and the sister who struggles to understand her. They’re whisked away to a musical unreality on an alpaca farm that grows hairier in every sense of the word. Alpacaland is a love letter to the loopy, high-spirited energy of 1930s Soviet propaganda musicals. No one has tried to honor them until now, for good reason.
