Will you be a schmucker or a hater?

Brussels, today.

Issachar & Zabulon are two brothers in their twenties living with their mother Cashmere in a low-rent neighborhood. Supremely stupid, they are never bored. For them, madness is part of daily life. When they lose January-Jack, their mother’s beloved dog, they have 24 hours to find it otherwise she will kick them out.

They certainly won’t get away from trouble...

Director

Born in Paris and based in Brussels, Harpo and Lenny Guit make movies together. They’ve worked with the same crew since their film school days, starting with a few shorts including LA SEMAINE EST ENCORE LONGUE (2015), NATHALIE F*** YOU ALL (2016) and LA BRIGADE DU KIFF (2018), all available on their Youtube channel Clubb Guitos. MOTHER SCHMUCKERS is their first feature film.

“A shot of John Waters recklessness to a
national cinema that has rarely behaved
this badly since Man Bites Dog.”
