All Sorts

Few things can be as soul-crushing as a hyper-mundane, dead-end office job. It’s been fertile comedic ground for decades (see: The Office, Office Space, etc.). Yakima Valley-native writer/director Rick Castañedat decided to take this framework in a surrealist direction in his latest comedy, All Sorts. Filmed in Central Washington, the quirky story follows Diego, a data-entry specialist who discovers a hidden underground world of competitive filing. His officemate June is an ace at this unusual “sport,” and the pair’s bond grows as the competition heats up. After premiering at the 2021 Seattle International Film Festival, All Sorts finally makes its way to Spokane. The debut screening on Friday, May 20 includes a red carpet premiere with Castañeda in attendance for a post-film Q&A. The movie continues to play at the Magic Lantern for the following week.
