Bonsai
A once joyful teenager, Frida, a girl with a head full of leaves is faced with challenges after losing her mother, Lu.

Ocean III
Ocean III is part of a series of films loosely connected by a similar process of cinematography that sees the operation of the camera as a kind of intuitive performance; specifically the way lenses, filters, and camera are manoeuvred in a single long take to create an impression of a space, while also frequently abstracting it.

The Fenestration of Suburbia
The Fenestration of Suburbia is a melancholic social documentation of a cold Canadian suburb. Framed behind windows and surveilled from the street, the lives of suburbanites float in the black cinematic frame to form images that are simultaneously sorrowful, mundane, theatrical, and puzzling.

The Bed and the Street
A love story set in the global anti-austerity demonstrations. As citizens take back their streets, two women meet and fall in love. What geometry of desire will help overthrow the state?

Cast in a palimpsest of images and sounds, as if there were no way to separate inside and out, the street and the bedroom.

Heads or Tails
“Heads or Tails” is composed of the heads and tails clipped from black-and-white Super 8 films Kyle has hand-processed over the years. The clips were arranged by flipping a quarter 8 times and then splicing in either a head or a tail selected at random, as determined by the coin toss.

Vapor
“Vapor” is an insubstantial film – diffused matter suspended in air – a cinematic dew point where time and space are distorted and compressed. Pinhole images coalesce into something recognizable and just as quickly fade into the mist of emulsion from which they came.

Fotdella
Fotdella follows Ryan Baer, a Canadian street musician – influenced by San Francisco one-man-band legend Jesse Fuller – as he constructs instruments from salvaged junk and performs in markets, ragtag parades, beach towns and underground spaces. As it drifts from Lake Huron to Berlin, the film captures the solitudes and celebrations of nostalgic touring bands who recycle 20th century blues, jazz and folk cultures. Fotdella tinkers with intimate and surreal performances to present a world of hacksaws, tubas, washboards and song staged between a transnational present and an imagined past. Featuring rare archival footage of Jesse Fuller’s last public concert,…
