For the past year and a half, Los Angeles-based producer Flying Lotus (real name Steven Ellison) has been diligently working on his debut feature film, Kuso, which he tells HipHopDX he worked on “every day.” Ahead of the film’s premiere, the Brainfeeder affiliate has shared an official trailer for the movie, which also stars P-Funk mastermind George Clinton, comedian Hannibal Buress,Workaholics actor Anders Holm, Zach Fox, Tim Heidecker, David Firth, and a several other interesting characters.
“I can’t really talk about the plot,” FlyLo tells DX. “But there is a general synopsis. Broadcasting through a makeshift network of discarded televisions, ‘Kuso’ is tangled up in the aftermath of Los Angeles’ worst quake nightmare. [You can] travel between screens and between aftershocks into the twisted lives of the survivors.”
Watch the weirdness unfold above before its Saturday (January 21) debut at Sundance.
