Beautiful, interesting, incredible cinema.
TWO PLAINS & A FANCY
Synopsis
Colorado, 1893: a trio of New York city slickers—a hippy-dippy mystic, a French geologist, and a foppish artist—wander the desert in search of the relaxing waters of the hot springs, along the way encountering from-the-future time travelers, kinky sex ghosts, spirit cats, and cowboys.

Our take
Shot on handheld 16mm film, this surreal western set in 1893 Colorado is equal parts bewildering, funny, and stunning. Directing duo Lev Kalman and Whitney Horn combine philosophical ruminations with expansive geological sights, resulting in a lo-fi road trip comedy that is beyond classification.
