FrightFest TV Presents: An interview with Otto Baxter
An unpredictable allegorical biopic from a filmmaker with Down Syndrome charts the life of a horned baby through years in captivity and ultimate revenge. Fusing horror, dark comedy, an evocative soundtrack and a foul-mouthed monster, a macabre story of a misunderstood child on a path to controlling their own life. Plus, a documentary on how 35-year-old director Otto Baxter uses his short film to explore his birth, adoption and epic battles. During the filmmaking process, Otto’s birth mother died, and he confronted life in the real world, including his future role in society.
