Top of PageRaising Cane: A Family Portrait
Synopsis:
This is part of Fight Fest at the Brick. In the tradition of early John Waters and Troma Films, Raising Cane: a Family Portrait follows the familial disfunctions of simpleton in-breeds who love nothing more than beating each others' brains out. Camp humor and grotesque combat combine to explore the question of whether we stick with family cause we love 'em or if we love 'em because we can't escape.
