    Bring Me the Head of Tim Horton
    Guided by the spirit of "The Cuadecuc Manifesto" (coined by co-director Evan Johnson and inspired by Pere Portabella's 1970 experimental cult documentary, Cuadecuc, vampir), Bring Me the Head of Tim Horton is a strange, stirring behind-the-scenes look at Paul Gross's new feature, Hyena Road. Shot on location at CFB Shilo near Brandon, Manitoba, and in Aqaba, Jordan, the film mixes deep contrast black-and-white expressionism with wry and raw western revisionism reminiscent of Sam Peckinpa

    Accidence
    Accidence (2018) - Short Film
    Every balcony is a poem, a chant -- a muscle. But whoever lives with that extra blueprint luxury of a balcony lives on the wrong side of a cross-section, on the busy, narrative-addled side of something like an ant-farm window, a brazen architectural arrangement selling cheap peeks into the naked sideshows of the quotidian -- even the grisly. Step right up. Behold. A ten story wall of solid twitching muscle.
