YOGA HOSERS

YOGA HOSERS
by Kevin Smith
Country: USA
Year: 2016
Duration: 88'


Adolescents Colleen C. and Colleen M. are completely disinterested in their jobs as salesclerks in a store in Winnipeg. They prefer to concentrate on social networks and invent signs with clever excuses so they can go in the backroom and rehearse with their rock band, whose third member is an improbable drummer who is over thirty years old. The other passion of the two girls is yoga, which they do with a self-styled teacher. They accidently discover an ancient demon, leading them into a completely new universe where they will battle an army of Bratwurst Nazis ready to sodomize Canada. [rm]

Biography

film director

Kevin Smith

Kevin Smith (Red Bank, NJ, USA, 1970), made famous by his debut film Clerks (1994), presented at Sundance, is a director, actor and producer, with his own company View Askew Productions. The creator of a world which is part grotesque, comedy, horror, fantasy and parody, suspended between indie and mainstream cinema, his first movie brought to life the characters Jay & Silent Bob, who returned in films such as Mallrats (1995), Chasing Amy (1997) and Dogma (1999); in films by other directors such as Scream 3 by Wes Craven (2000); and in comic books created by Smith. Other comic books of his are inspired by the world of superheroes and figures such as Daredevil, Green Arrow and Spider-Man. Yoga Hosers is part of the True North Trilogy, which began with Tusk and will conclude with Moose Jaws.

Declaration

film director

“Yoga Hosers is the movie I wanted to see when I was a twelve-year-old girl, so I decided to make it. […] After we shot a scene, I would bring Harley and Lily-Rose over to watch their takes, and they would immediately see what they needed to do differently. Nobody wants to make sure that they look better and sound better more than fifteen-year-old girls.”
