Synopsis: Beefy isn’t the world’s most famous lake monster. In fact, he’s not famous at all, but one man hopes to change that.

A beach towel salesman by trade, and a folklorist at heart, Augustus sets out to make a film about Beefy, only to find that fame, like Beefy himself, is frustratingly out of reach. Will he succeed in making Beefy a household name, or will the elusive lake monster remain a legend?

Based on the prize-winning short story and produced in the style of a ’70s Saturday Morning Cartoon, Beefy is a ‘monster movie’ like no other.

Followed by Q&A with Filmmaker & Cast.
