Miami Film Festival / Animation - "Boys Go to Jupiter" Directed by Julian Glander
2025-04-08 21:00 - 22:30 (America/New_York) | Silverspot Cinema, 300 SE 3rd St #100, Miami, FL, 33131, United States
Julian Glander’s style is all his own, featured everywhere from the New Yorker to Adult Swim, and now a perfect match for the humid surrealism of Florida in Boys Go To Jupiter.
Set during the liminal period between Christmas and New Year’s, the film follows a week in the life of teenage delivery driver Billy 5000 (Jack Corbett) as he tries to out-smart the gig economy. After a routine dropoff, Billy becomes the caretaker of a mysterious egg that hatches an alien creature.
Through ridiculous humor, plenty of heart and a stellar voice cast (Comedic all stars Julio Torres, Sarah Sherman, Cole Escola, & Janeane Garofalo to name a few) Billy navigates the difficult choices of life, love and money that come along with becoming the unwelcomed parent of an alien creature.
