Seymour Flicks presents Against the Grain, a brief look into the world of competitive beard modeling. This short (and very real) documentary follows Chet, Jerome, and Baxter as they attempt to traverse the minefield of an industry. Chet has been around. Jerome has unique hygiene. And Baxter might be a little obsessed. We also hear from Harriet, an industry executive who has literally made and broke beard modeling careers. Sit back and take in a short movie that won awards for: Best Film - Peoples Choice Technical Excellence Best Cinematography Best Ensemble Acting Spirit of Fischgaard - Director to Director and received honorable mention in several other categories at the 2014 Fischgaard 48 hr film festival.
