Synopsis

Using contemporary animation techniques and found footage, this seemingly simple story about how to fell trees reveals a poignant tale about identity, romantic love and celebrity. Moving between fact and fiction, Hollywood and Spain, past and present, Chainsaw is about romance and celebrity, machismo and chainsaws, fantasy and death.
