Rodents of Unusual Size
Nutria on the big screen
Manship Theatre 100 Lafayette Street, Baton Rouge, Louisiana 70802
Hard headed Louisiana fisherman Thomas Gonzales doesn't know what will hit him next. After decades of hurricanes and oil spills he faces a new threat: hordes of monstrous twenty-pound swamp rats. With their orange teeth and voracious appetite, the nutria are eating up the coastal wetlands that protects Thomas and his town of Delacroix Island from hurricanes, but the people who have lived here for generations are not the type of folks who will give up without a fight. Thomas and a pack of lively bounty hunters are hellbent on saving Louisiana before it dissolves beneath their feet. May the best mammal win. $9.50. 2 pm, followed by a Q and A with the filmmakers. manshiptheatre.org.
