Confluence poster

Larger than life and decked out in outrageous 1990s garb, Serbian pop star Doris recounts her experiences as a former child star in a war-torn country. A tightly framed film, set in several distinct and technicolor sets lending it an air of artificiality not soon to be forgotten.

Sun Surface poster
NR

'Sun Surface’ revolves poetically around the principles of energy flow, the question of excess, the acceleration of the economy, climate upheaval, but also cinema as an energy device, its ability to translate principles of realities, or to capture the part of fiction that emanates from this reality.

Listen, Try Not to Dwell on That Idea, Please... poster
NR

Poetic and abstract re-staging of Michelangelo Antonioni's L'Avventura from memory. Fleeting images and gestures are replayed with variations in a hypnotic and sensuous cycle.

Life Is About Losing Everything poster
NR

Life Is About Losing Everything is a hybrid documentary, equal parts feminist artist portrait and fantastical memoir, exploring loss and love through the lens of pop culture and art. Based on Canadian poet Lynn Crosbie’s memoir of the same name, the film follows multiple fictionalized incarnations of Crosbie as they embark on a delirious journey through the writer’s memories and imagination, encountering celebrity lookalikes, an inch-tall man, uncanny high schoolers, and a Zombie Sylvia Plath along the way. Drawing on a wealth of pop and literary references, Life Is About Losing Everything reflects on the role of art and storytelling in finding kinship and giving meaning to our lives.

It does so via a visual interpretation that does not purely use montage to address our ideas on film and the moving image and which rather, in a collision of images, dissolves montage’s customary boundaries between narrators, protagonists, and historic fact.
