In a special collaboration with Pioneer Works and New York Review Books, help us launch Dash Shaw’s new book, Blurry, with a screening of Cryptozoo.
This Sundance and Berlinale award-winning adult animated feature is about a misguided zoo that rescues and houses mythological creatures. As cryptozookeepers struggle to capture a baku (a legendary dream-eating hybrid creature) they begin to question whether they should house these rare beings in the confines of a zoo, or if they should remain hidden and unknown. Part experimental film and part blockbuster disaster movie, Cryptozoo stars the voice talents of Lake Bell, Michael Cera, Zoe Kazan, Louisa Krause, Angeliki Papoulia, Thomas Jay Ryan, Peter Stormare and Grace Zabriskie.
Co-presented with Pioneer Works. Post-screening Q&A and book-signing with Dash Shaw, hosted by Joey Frank.
