“You haven’t seen an animated documentary like this before.” —Variety
The zany and irreverent indie stop-motion animated feature Bob Spit: We Do Not Like People is inspired by the life and work of celebrated Brazilian cartoonist Angeli, who created the popular punk character Bob Spit. Director Cesar Cabral ingeniously mixes documentary, comedy, and road movie to create an offbeat animated experience unlike you’ve ever seen, including tiny, bloodthirsty clones of Elton John.
