Each year Images screens more than 100 short and feature-length
films and videos from around the world, selected from
hundreds of submissions, to compete for our annual Awards.
These programs form the backbone of the festival, spanning
every genre, from unconventional narratives and animation
to documentaries and experiments in cinematic form.
A few of this year’s highlights include the Toronto
premiere of Julie Talen’s widely acclaimed experimental
drama Pretend;
Clive Holden’s beautiful trains
of winnipeg - 14 film poems; The
Phantom Museum from obsessive animators the Brothers
Quay; It’s
Not My Memory of It, Julia Meltzer and David Thorne’s
extraordinary investigation into official secrets; and
veteran Canadian filmmaker Richard Kerr’s massive
collage
d’hollywood, constructed from ravaged Hollywood
movie trailers. |
