2021The Exquisite Corpse
Gilles Hebert, Paula Kelly
The Exquisite Corpse is an exciting and unique collaborative film project, involving a group of eleven filmmakers contributing different segments in one movie. The linkage of the individual segments was achieved by applying an old game used by Surrealist artists in the 1920's to explore the collective imagination. That game, called "Exquisite Corpse", was first applied in literary form by a group of poets each supplying one line of the total poem. In drawing, a group of artists would take turns drawing one part of a human figure, without seeing what the others had contributed.

CarFree: Stories from the Non-Driving Life
Kenneth George Godwin, Janine Tschuncky
Winnipeg, like most North American cities, has been shaped by the automobile. City planners designed the urban environment around the idea of mobility, and the social and work life of the population followed. The car became a necessity rather than a luxury; our environment demanded that we drive. So what does it mean, living in a car-based society, to make a conscious choice not to drive? In this new film, a number of Winnipeggers speak of this choice and the effect it has had on their lives. From mothers with young children to social activists, from artists to human rights workers, they share their reasons for choosing not to drive and the practical consequences in terms of work and social relationships.
