A struggling farmer brings in a hard-drinking, chain-smoking backwoods accountant with a serious talent for numbers, and together they stumble into something that goes way, way beyond the farm's balance sheet. Winner of the 2001 Academy Award for Best Short Film, The Accountant is 40 minutes of pure Southern-fried comedic genius, starring Ray McKinnon and a pre-fame Walton Goggins (Justified, The White Lotus, The Righteous Gemstones). Newly remastered and looking better than ever. This is your chance to finally see one of the best short films ever made.

Why This Film Matters: The Accountant is set in rural America during a moment of acute agricultural crisis, with family farms disappearing, communities hollowed out, and a federal system rigged against the small farmer. That story hasn't gone away. As corporate consolidation of agriculture accelerates, rural communities continue to face economic devastation, and the political anger born from that abandonment reshapes entire elections, this film's satirical bite lands somewhere true. Comedy has always been one of the sharpest tools for exposing the absurdity of systems that crush ordinary people, and The Accountant uses it with precision.
