SUMMARY:qIFF: Evil Does Not Exist
DESCRIPTION:In the rural alpine hamlet of Mizubiki\, not far from Tokyo\, Takumi and his daughter\, Hana\, lead a modest life gathering water\, wood\, and wild wasabi for the local udon restaurant. Like generations before them\, they live a modest life according to the cycles and order of nature. Increasingly\, the townsfolk become aware of a talent agency’s plan to build an opulent glamping site nearby\, offering city residents a comfortable “escape” to the snowy wilderness. Ryûsuke Hamaguchi’s follow up to his Academy Award-winning Drive My Car is a foreboding fable on humanity’s mysterious\, mystical relationship with nature. As sinister gunshots echo from the forest\, both the locals and representatives confront their life choices and the haunting consequences they have. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n	Related

SUMMARY:qIFF: So Surreal Behind The Masks
DESCRIPTION:So Surreal: Behind the Masks\, co-directed by Joanne Robertson \n\n\n\n\nNeil Diamond is a Cree filmmaker\, who made a huge impact with Reel Injun\, a documentary about the negative “Indian” stereotypes that so permeate Western society that even the filmmaker as a child wanted to be a cowboy\, not himself\, when playing with friends. Reel Injun won three Gemini Awards including for best director and went on to win a Peabody Award. His new film So Surreal: Behind the Masks\, co-directed by Joanne Robertson\, explores the strange but intense relationship between Surrealism and the masks of the Yup’ik ‘and Kwakwaka’wakw nations and how that commingling came to pass. It’s about cultural appropriation\, art and dream imagery. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n	Related

SUMMARY:qIFF: FLOW

SUMMARY:qIFF: TEXADA
DESCRIPTION:How big is time? On the remote Canadian island of Texada\, the everyday stuff of human existence – work\, play and dreams – is juxtaposed against the tectonic shifts of the planet\, rising and falling in cyclical patterns of creation\, extinction and renewal. \n\n\n\nIn this impressionistic VR project\, co-directors Claire Sanford and Josephine Anderson merge 360-degree live-action footage\, captured across the island\, with 3D animation of geologic upheaval to create an immersive\, poetic experience. A chorus of residents’ voices ebbs and flows\, unravelling the complexities of the surrounding limestone that is central to the community and economy of the island. Present in everything from toothpaste to the great Pyramids of Egypt\, this humble yet ubiquitous rock is a critical element in the construction of our modern society. \n\n\n\nTexada is about rocks\, people\, and time – the head-spinning vastness of terrestrial epochs contrasted with the immediacy of day-to-day human experience. Real and imagined landscapes document a journey from the Earth’s formation to the current moment: twinned streams of existence mixing and mingling in an ever-changing flow. As geologic forces continue to unfold\, the only constant is transformation. Yet amongst the great heave of history\, glimpses of temporal beauty\, like discovering beautiful stones on a beach\, help us understand our place in the universe. \n\n\n\nVR Workshop Monday March 10\, 1:30pm \n\n\n\nIn this workshop\, filmmakers Josephine Anderson and Claire Sanford unpack the techniques and strategies for making work in virtual reality. Using their new VR documentary Texada (produced by the National Film Board of Canada) as a case study\, the filmmakers share insights\, challenges and real-world examples of what it is like to undertake a virtual reality collaboration. They will demonstrate shooting with a professional 360-degree camera and share experiences working alongside animators\, developers and participants. With practices rooted in themes of time\, identity and the natural world\, the filmmakers unpack the question: how do we think immersively? What opportunities does this present\, and how does it help us see the world differently? \n\n\n\nSchedule for viewing VR:\n\n\n\n3 VR headsets will be set up at the front of the auditorium. To book one of the times below\, please register at the Will Call Table outside of the box office. \n\n\n\nSaturday March 8 – 12:30pm and 1pm; 6pm and 6:30pm \n\n\n\nSunday March 9 – 12:30pm and 1pm; 6pm and 6:30pm \n\n\n\nMonday March 10 – 6pm and 6:30pm \n\n\n\nTuesday March 11 – 6pm and 6:30pm \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n	Related

SUMMARY:qIFF: Bird
DESCRIPTION:BirdDrama – Not rated \n\n\n\n\nAndrea Arnold\, the filmmaker behind Fish Tank and American Honey\, has returned with a sensitive\, fairytale-like coming-of-age story. 12-year-old Bailey lives with her single dad Bug\, played by Barry Keoghan\, who’s both charismatic and incredibly sad\, in a squat in North Kent. Bug doesn’t have much time for his kids\, and Bailey\, who is approaching puberty\, seeks attention and adventure elsewhere. Bird is for every lost child who wishes someone would have stood up and defended them. It’s a fragile but beautiful vision and marks the strongest blend yet of Andrea Arnold’s primary directives as a filmmaker.  Her films have always had a bit of the magical in them.\, and Bird fluidly drops in and out of reality and something more magical.  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n	Related
