THE DISTRICT!
Rated NR; 87min; Director:Áron Gauder
Location: Alamo South Lamar
The triumphant return of last year's Fantastic Fest favorite!!
The revolutionary new achievement of animated storytelling is back in the U.S. for a special week-long run.
Like an Eastern European blend of SOUTH PARK and Fat Albert's Junkyard Gang, The kids of The District grow up up amidst constant rivalry and fighting as their Gypsy, Hungarian, Arab and Chinese families engage in everyday hostility. Yet Richie, the youngest of the Lakatos clan attempts to find a way to pacify the Csorba family, and especally their lovely daughter, Jules. As he soon reveals, the way to peace is through money, and that the only way to make money is to have oil. So the kids take a time-travel trip to the prehistoric age and create their own oil reserves right under the district. After their return, the exploitation of oil begins, radically changing the stance both in the school and in the general criminal environment of the area. And their sudden success draws some unwanted international attention to The District.
