Fear of Blushing
Bleached, painted and optically printed, “Fear of Blushing” combines alternating textures, irrepressible colour and corroded figures with menacing sound bites, effects and rhythm.

Only after the onslaught can you wonder what horrible thing was buried there.

A moving portrait of one boy’s strength of character in the face of challenges associated with having microtia, a birth defect that causes severe hearing loss. “John Morgan, the 10-year-old subject of the short, artful documentary In Bobcaygeon, has microtia, a birth defect that caused him to be born with only one fully developed ear. There’s nothing wrong with John’s mouth, though – he talks a lot, about his microtia, about playing minor hockey and about the camel his family keeps in the backyard.
