Dream Team

Like Baywatch Nights directed by Maya Deren, DREAM TEAM is a surrealist feature-length comedy from critically acclaimed cult filmmakers Lev Kalman and Whitney Horn (L for Leisure, Two Plains and a Fancy). The film takes place in 1997, and follows Chase and No -- two Interpol agents with a hot, barely platonic relationship, as they follow the thread of a coral smuggler's mysterious death. The investigation leads the agents down a rabbit hole, revealing a surreal international conspiracy involving utopian basketball leagues, sensual scientists, and a psychic network of coral reefs. Helping the agents are K and Venice, two graduate students who split their free time studying experimental dance and interning at Interpol; agent Midnight Shadow, operating out of Mexican Wine Country; and Hard Karl, a possibly evil, definitely pervy invisible man. As their investigation deepens, the agents discover that the boundaries between animate and inanimate, local and distant, and mind and body, are blurring in weird and menacing ways.
