Comedic and tragic, Québécois cinema continues to be my pick at tiff.

Raining Movies

Working a gala screening at Roy Thomson Hall, all the guests were my co-workers. I seated them one by one, and it started to rain inside the theatre. I brought my colleagues umbrellas so they could stay dry while they watched the movie. 

Out at the main door, my sister was the rush line front of house rep. While we were talking a woman in line started to push, so I wrapped my hands around the patrons neck and strangled her as she smiled back at me.

Pig man going to get me

Matt, Brent and I were eight year old boys who ventured out last night into the park. I could feel we were being hunted. At the edge of the park was a chain link fence with drooping trees on the other side, I looked back to the city and when I turned my friends were gone. I decided to go home by myself, scared to know the night time park was filled with predators. I walked down the hill, slowly, and then behind the bushes saw my enemy. A fat pig man, wearing a suit, watching me. I yelled out knowing he would get me, and I woke up. 

tiff. OPENING NIGHT

All I need is a pink sky.

A plane cuts across my sunset, dissecting the sky, splitting hairs, cares. Hot, cold. Release the hate, gluttonous takers, destroyers, "the hard suck".

"PIGS IN SPAAAAACE"

A new report paints an increasingly cluttered mess in low orbit, so much so that old satellites are crashing into each other subsequently creating additional debris.

The only thing that will correct this, is more technology.
