David Zellis (NSI Totally Television) and Craig Guiboche (CBC New Indigenous Voices) of Zellco Entertainment will host a virtual screening of the Manitoba-made dark comedy Smoked Lizard Lips on February 19.

Smoked Lizard Lips, originally released in 1991, follows a recently deposed Central American dictator who relocates to northern Manitoba to start a new repressive regime.

The film’s re-release will be streamed through Countryfest Community Virtual Cinema in Dauphin, Manitoba. A portion of the ticket sales will go towards keeping this local movie theatre funded during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Zellco Entertainment is a production and distribution company aimed at releasing Canadian titles on streaming platforms like Amazon Prime and iTunes. Their recent titles include tapeworm and Running Water.

The film begins streaming this Friday, February 19. Buy your virtual tickets now!
