The Snake (SXSW)

4.6

Slither into hilarity with The Snake, the wildly anticipated directorial debut of Jenna MacMillan, written by and starring Susan Kent! This off-beat comedy follows Jamie, a chaotic 40-something wild child whose life explodes when she clashes with her venomous mother Anne—leaving her evicted, single, and tangled up with her best friend's husband. Expect a rollicking 'pig in a hurricane' journey through break-ins, punk rock exes, and laugh-out-loud mishaps!

Featuring a stellar Canadian cast including Robin Duke, Jonathan Torrens, Emma Hunter, and more, this 2025 world premiere gem blends comedy and drama in English. Catch it at the iconic Alamo Lamar during SXSW '26— screenings on March 13, 16, and 18—perfect for fans of quirky family chaos and redemption quests. Don't miss badges, wristbands, and priority access for this buzzworthy event!
