The film that answers the age-old question: Musical or Western? Discordian Film’s entry into the 2015 Baltimore 48 Hour Film Project.

When an avant-garde director is forced to consult with a blockbuster audience, the result isn’t what anyone might expect.

About the film

It’s all Mikki’s fault.

We had so much fun making “The Interrogation” for the DC 48 Hour Film Project that Mikki decided we should do another one.  At the Rude Mechanicals 15th Anniversary Party, she managed to talk Joe into doing Baltimore’s 48HFP.  In true western style, we put together our team of heroes: we got some old team members, added a few new ones, and made this film.

The genre: Musical or Western (and boy, weren’t we scared when we heard that!)

The elements: Q. Treller, member of a secret society.  The line “Sometimes the best answer is no answer.”  The prop: a roll of tape.
