By Ian Campbell | 00:06:33 | Animation, Documentary | 01/03/2015

At the dawn of the 20th century the horse was supplanted by a new means of power. This new invention is making itself known across the prairies of North America. Soon it will make its presence felt in a most radical way.

Isolated Gestures

By Kent Tate | 00:12:11 | Documentary, Experimental | 15/06/2014

There are places that we seek, and there are places that find us. One can never know for sure which comes first; the seeking or the finding. Often the unexpected moment occurs, the unforeseen discoveries, the meaning of which is informed by how one perceives that moment.

George Bassler’s Perpetual Motion Machine

By Berny Hi | 00:03:30 | Narrative-Fiction | 13/01/2014

Following his family’s untimely demise, prairie homesteader George Bassler bizarrely spends 1945 crafting a Perpetual Motion machine uncannily echoing similarly named inventor Johann Bessler’s 1712 invention, the Perpetuum Mobile. Based on actual events, this film explores obsession with employing mechanical devices to trick time and make everything last forever.

A visual meditation on who we believe ourselves to be as humans, what we expect of each other and how we connect.

The 1980s saw the birth of prairie post-modern cinema, a Winnipeg art movement that gained major international acclaim.

Survival Lessons is a humorous film featuring candid interviews with Klymkiw and…

Strongest Man in the World, The

By Halya Kuckmij | 00:29:00 | Documentary | 1/1/1980

This film tells the bittersweet story of strongman and magician Mike Swistun who, for thirty days in 1923, was the strongman with Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey Circus. Born in Olha, Manitoba, Swistun was a Ukrainian farm boy, who, for a short moment in time, achieved fame and fortune only to lose it. Narrated…
