The Circle - Zeiss

The Circle - Zeiss

For a while my creativity felt stale and it didn’t incite the excitement it used too. There was something missing with what I was doing and I couldn’t understand what it was. I felt I was living life in a circular motion. Doing the same things and experiencing the same things. I needed a change. When I wrote this film these were the thoughts that were actively on my consciousness. A lot of things when I’m creating films or art I just have a feeling. And often times I for that moment lack the vocabulary to explain what it is I’m feeling. I use film a form of visual poetry. It’s a vessel that helps me make sense of what it is that I’m experiencing. I hope when you watch this you felt something. And it helped you make sense of something you may not have had words for. Or at the least it made you feel something other than the circular emotions you’ve been experiencing. “The Circle” is just a line but something profound happens when that line bends and takes on new forms.

Violet Gave Willingly (2022) by Claire Sanford

Violet Gave Willingly immerses us in the colourful world of textile artist Deborah Dumka, inviting viewers to witness the unflinchingly intimate details of her artistic process and inner life. Nestled in a cluttered studio by the sea, we witness an artist at work on a project that delves into a past unspoken. An intimate study of the nature of memory and how it can both harm and protect, the film lays bare the continuum and legacy of gender-based discrimination, sexism, and sexual violence. More than a portrait, the film is a conversation. As mother and daughter struggle to give voice to their experiences, power radiates from speaking uncomfortable truths. The film has played at over a dozen festivals across the globe, including: TIFF Top Ten, IDFA, DOCNYC, Hot Docs, Whistler Film Festival, Dokufest, Rendez-vous Québec Cinéma, Lunenburg Doc Fest, Flying Film Fest (Swiss Air) among others. It has been exhibited in galleries and as part of workshops designed to explore and dismantle the structures of sexism and sexual violence.

Sugar Glass Bottle (2022)

Sugar Glass Bottle (2022)

Short Film, 20 mins, English Subtitles Written and Directed by Neo Sora In the peripheries of near-future Tokyo, high schoolers Kou and Yuta practice a prank that begins as a faux argument and ends with one bashing the other over the head with a prop glass bottle stolen from their theater department. Yuta coaches Kou to better express his anger to make the prank more convincing until they run into the elderly Deko-chan, a displaced neighborhood friend of Kou’s. The three have a raucous evening smashing bottles that’s cut short when the group is photographed by a police robot dog investigating Deko-chan’s makeshift house. Energized by the new friendship, but disturbed by an increasingly surveilled and commercialized landscape that is hostile to the unhoused, Kou and Yuta head back to Kou’s mother’s Korean diner for dinner, only to find a real estate shark trying to intimidate Kou’s mother into selling her establishment. As the tensions rise in the eatery, Kou and Yuta seize the opportunity to execute their prank. Finally pushed to the edge, Kou lets loose in a way that blurs the line between performance and actual fury, scaring away the real estate developer. Initially inspired by a prank that the writer-director Neo Sora (The Chicken, 2020) had pulled on him in his childhood, a sense of warm nostalgia and cold, material reality intermingle to tell a tale set in the not-so-distant future about disappearing spaces and the forces of policing and gentrification that drills this process forward.
