Doozy
Director: Richard Squires
Year: 2018
Where does the character end and the actor begin? This debut feature from UK artist-filmmaker Richard Squires, is a creative documentary that employs 'Clovis', an animated antihero (voiced by 'Kids in the Hall's' Mark McKinney) as a means to explore the particular “voice” casting of cartoon villains in the late 1960s. Through the lens of one of Hollywood’s hidden queer histories, this documentary offers a contemplation on the psycho-social relationship between villainy and hysterical male laughter; the use of voice as a signifier of ‘otherness’ and the frequently uneasy symbiosis of character and actor.

When Basque woman, Ane (20), is kidnapped by a male taxi driver, she wakes up in a mysterious house in the countryside and discovers that the three other women being held captive act as the kidnapper’s ‘daughters’, with the eldest ‘daughter’ released back into society each time a new daughter is brought into the house. Terrified, Ane must convince the other ‘daughters’ to escape, but they have other plans.
