Borscht Film Festival's Adventures of Christopher Bosh in the Multiverse Looks Mindscrewingly Fun

The saying goes, "If it ain't broke, don't fix it." And the Borscht Film Festival, which will host its eighth edition next month, isn't broken. It's just a little cracked.

Earlier this year, the Borscht-produced short film Life and Times of Uncle Luke -- which combined a cartoonishly colorful set with the talents of Jillian Mayer, Lucas Leyva, and yes, Uncle Luke himself -- took the Sundance Film Festival by storm. And one selection from this year's Borscht festival, Adventures of Christopher Bosh in the Multiverse, could achieve similar notoriety with another colorful pairing of Miami personalities -- most notably, the Miami Heat's Chris Bosh.

Created by Bleeding Palm, the animated Adventures takes a superhero-looking Bosh on an Odyssean journey through neon-hued space, encountering Jillian Mayer and getting in touch with a spirit animal-like wolf along the way. Check it out after the jump.
