Beaver Trilogy Part IV.

A Sundance documentary written and directed by Brad Besser, narrated by Bill Hader — on the strange cult legacy of Trent Harris's “Beaver Trilogy.”

The Film

Synopsis

Brad Besser's documentary traces the unlikely, decades-spanning cult of Trent Harris's “Beaver Trilogy” — three retellings of a single chance encounter, from a 1979 home-video portrait of an eccentric small-town performer to dramatic remakes starring a young Sean Penn and Crispin Glover. Narrated by Bill Hader.
