"Hunt for the Wilderpeople"
If you’ve been itching for a sign to finally go on that unforgettable summer camping trip, this is it.

SLUGFEST emerges as a playful, engaging martial arts experience that delves into the "inner-feminist struggles" that have characterized recent years and decades. Yet, unlike narratives of division, this film champions the concept of unity, emphasizing the dire need for solidarity and deeper mutual respect within feminist discourse. The film's central motif is a stylized, choreographed sparring training that, while aimed at empowerment and self-discovery, can sometimes escalate beyond control. This metaphorical approach isn't about antagonism but represents the passionate debates that fuel progress and understanding, even when they momentarily seem to get out of hand. "There is no losing in martial arts. Either you win or you learn." - as Karate Kid would say today.
