MAF Presents: The Old Man Movie: Lactopalypse
29 March 2023
We are very excited to be hosting the UK premiere of Oskar Lehemaa & Mikk Mägi’s insane stop motion masterpiece The Old Man Movie: Lactopalypse!
The film starts in a remote Estonian village, where three children from the city are forced to spend the summer on their grandfather’s farm. When the trio accidentally set loose the old man’s prized but thoroughly abused cow, they learn that they have only 24 hours to milk the rogue cow before it’s exponentially expanding udders explode and unleash a milk-pocalypse. To complicate this crisis, a decrepit and disgraced farmer with a body literally infused with milk and a prejudice for cattle is also determined to catch the animal, but with murderous intent. Based on the popular Estonian web series created by Peeter Ritso and Mikk Mägi.
We are also delighted to be joined by co-directors on the film Oskar Lehemaa & Mikk Mägi for a post screening Q&A, chaired by Steve Henderson, Festival Director at MAF.
This screening will take place at 18:10 on Wed 24 May at HOME Cinema, Manchester.
