Julian Glander | USA | 2024 | 90m

It's the day after Christmas in suburban Florida and Billy 5000 and his friends pass the seemingly endless days by slacking, shoplifting, and beatboxing. In between lounging on the beach and sneaking into pools, Billy spends his time hustling on the food-on-demand app Grubster, desperate to make $5,000 before New Year's Eve. As he darts around the city delivering to a series of oddball characters, a routine stop at the mysterious Dolphin Groves Juice Company leads to a run-in with his former classmate—and crush—Rozebud and a surprise backpack stowaway in Donut, a bizarre creature from another world. But Dr. Dolphin, the powerful orange juice CEO, will do anything to get Donut back, and Billy is forced to make hard choices about love, friendship, and how far he'll go for financial security in a world ruled by capitalism in this absurdist and musical take on a coming-of-age comedy.

"In the artist Julian Glander’s curiously creative animated comedy, a teenage food delivery courier traverses a Floridian suburb that suggests a Richard Scarry town on acid." - Natalia Winkelman, New York Times

"Boys Go to Jupiter is the type of animated feature we need more of: experimental, unusual, yet fun and familiar... with some of the funniest people working in comedy today." - Ross Bonaime, Collider
