ABOUT THE FILM: Directed by Costa Karalis | USA | Documentary/Fantasy
An adult woman sets out to prove the swamp creature she met as a child was real, and Frogtown follows her all the way down that rabbit hole, blurring fact and fiction so completely you'll stop trying to tell the difference. Shot in Marianna, a tiny Panhandle town of about 3,000 people, the film interviewed over 60 real residents, many of whom appear as themselves, dreamers, believers, storytellers, the kind of people most films forget to look at twice.
Director Costa Karalis was raised near Clearwater, Florida, and it shows. This isn't the postcard Florida of beaches and neon, it's the swamp-and-cypress Florida further north, the one that rarely gets its own movie.
This program was made possible in partnership with the Subtropic Film Festival.
