You all know the song EBONY & IVORY. If you don't... Imagine two musical legends convene at a remote Scottish cottage to discuss a potential collaboration that may unite an entire generation.Stevie (Gil Gex, DANGEROUS MEN), a blind musical legend, sails to the Mull Of Kintyre to visit Paul (Sky Elobar, star of THE GREASY STRANGLER), another musical icon. What results is a tense summit to discuss a potential collaboration that will ultimately result in a Global Number One smash hit single. EBONY AND IVORY offers a highly fictionalized account of the first meeting between Paul McCartney and Stevie Wonder as they get to know each other with the hope of sparking a future collaboration. Director and writer of the cult-sensation THE GREASY STRANGLER and the CUFF 2018 Opening Night Film AN EVENING WITH BEVERLY LUFF LINN, CUFF favourite Jim Hosking returns to the festival with his latest deadpan absurdist indie comedy.
