All summer long, Rooftop Films presents unusual, genre-bending independent shorts and features in wickedly cool outdoor locations, turning each event into a party. On Thursday, August 4, in the Crown Vic backyard in Williamsburg, they are hosting one of their craziest, “Dangerous Docs and Whisker Wars,” consisting of a half dozen documentaries that examine some pretty strange, offbeat characters, including former women’s professional wrestling champion Irma Gonzalez (Charles Fairbanks’s Irma), a group of dudes competing in the National Beard and Mustache Championship (Thom Beers’s Whisker Wars), the Hell’s Satans of Richmond, Virginia (Carlos Puga’s Satan Since 2003), the Guess Who’s Burton Cummings (Matthew Rankin’s Negativipeg), Polish mountain climber Piotr “Mad” Korczak (Marcin Koszałka’s Declaration of Immortality), and, well, the title says it all: the Zellner Bros.’ Sasquatch Birth Journal 2. The evening begins with live music from bicoastal acoustic folk rocker Elle King at 8:30 and is followed by an after-party at the Crown Vic.
