8th Street Menace / Canada/ 2024/ Dir: Dir: Gavin Baird, Jacob Farrell / 67 Min
While living in Saskatoon, Mitchell Dubois aka “Menace,” owes his cousin some cash. Failing as a part-time thief, he tries to become a rapper while dragging his loved ones along for the ride.
Co-created and directed by Gavin Baird and Jacob Farrell, 8th Street Menace delivers a refreshing take on the slacker genre. Like the story, the soundtrack and editing choices pull inspiration from all directions. Using various types of mixed animations and a soundtrack that utilizes influences from video games to folk music, the directors imbue the film with a tactical chaos. It’s all held together by an ensemble cast that seems lifted off the street, led by the director Gavin Baird as Menace. This film is an ode to local dirtbags, Métis pride and the spirit of indie filmmaking.
