FEATURE FILM
On the edge of a nervous breakdown, Maxwell is shocked to find he has inherited a sloth sanctuary from his father. When a talking sloth (voiced by JACK MCBRAYER of 30 Rock, Wreck-it-Ralph, Despicable Me) visits his dreams, Maxwell becomes obsessed with saving the animal's habitat in his waking life by returning to his first passion, music.
Songs for a Sloth is a film about the struggle to be both the person we want to be and the person we feel responsible to be, and about being motivated to realize that it is never too late to pursue one's dream in life.
The film has taken home the Best Feature award at Paris Play Film Festival and Venice Film Awards amongst other accolades in the film festival circuit, and was released by Gravitas Pictures.
