Canadian Diaries Screening

Our film was shown in Calgary on August 25th as part of a Shorts Program. Here's a blurb from the website:
"The project will showcase independent Canadian documentaries, and explore the historical and contemporary traditions of the genre as an intrinsic part of Canadian culture. The feature film we have selected as a seminal work, Pour la Suite du Monde, is a film that has a uncontested place in Canadian film history, and the shorts programs will contain contemporary documentary films (with a focus on works that utilize the film medium - 8mm, Super 8mm, 16mm, 35mm etc). They will deal with Canadian identity, explore landscape and culture, and the creation of self through them."

Thanks to the CSIF for including our film among such illustrious and respectable filmmakers. Alanis Obomsawin had a film in the same program as ours, and that is an honour indeed.
