“Hundreds of Beavers,” a boldly bizarre, nearly wordless slapstick comedy about a 19th-century trapper doing battle with nature, exceeds expectations in every way, including the promise of its title.

It took me seven years and a countdown to the fifteenth anniversary of Seattle’s WTO protests to watch it, and to my (pleasant) surprise, the entire piece managed to grasp my attention.
