Nominated for the best animated film Oscar earlier this year, this charming hand-drawn feature is a joint French-Belgian release, and is perfect for a morning screening. Scurlock will be a guest at the screening, and a short film, “Melvyn the Birder” made by puppeteer and Lawrence native Spencer Lott will precede the film.

Full of Rhys’ plaintive, folksy new songs and accompanied in part by Lawrence drummer Kliph Scurlock, “American Interior” has plenty of great music to enjoy as Rhys delves into Native American history and brings to light the story of a troubled historical figure. According to the film, Welsh explorer John Evans (played by a puppet) was a distant relative of Rhys, so the musician (from Wales’ own Super Furry Animals) retraces his journey to America in 1792 with a series of comedic storytelling musical performances. If magical realism could be applied to a documentary, Gruff Rhys and Dylan Goch’s music-filled travelogue across America does just that. It’s sure to be an inspiring night, as young adults from both programs have been working on the 11 shorts since January and have seen them through every stage of planning and production. This free screening spotlights the short films made by 23 students from the Boys and Girls Club and Van Go in conjunction with Free State Festival staff.
