at: Studio Academy

A philosophical comedy by Tom Strelich.

Hertel Daggett is the physical and spiritual caretaker of the pet cemetery he inherited from his father. His eccentric solitude is intruded upon when his property unexpectedly becomes valuable. All of the usual vultures decent.



Hertel's fight to protect the forty dried up, burnt out acres of dead pets from the forces of real estate, family, and reality weaves dinosaurs, cave men, Egyptians, amoebas, television evangelists, Godzilla, and gospel music, answering the primal question: What really makes man different than all the other animals?
