According to Shredbots, where the flick was posted, more than half of the budget for the film was provided by stimulus checks. Which isn’t a terrible way to spend that money. Asher Humphreys, Sy Moran, Benji Farrow, and Mike Green used their cash wisely to create this little 18-minute, backcountry art piece.
