So back around 2004 a friend showed me a 15 minute movie he made called “The woodsman”. This was around Memphis, Tennessee. It was an absurd comedy about an overworked office guy named Johnson who has a crappy boss. The guy lived in the forest and met a magical woodsman who he also didn’t like.

Key scenes I remember:

The boss constantly chugged water.

The woodsman would leave pinecones on the guys porch shaped like a penis.

He climbed trees by floating up them.

The same guy played all parts.

I know this is an EXTREMELY long shot. But I’m desperate to find this again for a friend and I’m not sure how far this thing spread. Thanks for any help.
