Synopsis
Get your movie fix in bite-sized bits with this collection of the year’s best Canadian short films. In 1969, teenager Josh Raskin snuck into a Toronto hotel to interview John Lennon about his “bed-in” peace-protests. 38 years later, he’s turned the original recording into a delightful animated film — the Oscar-nominated I Met The Walrus. Another Oscar-nominee, Madame Tutli-Putli is a haunting stop-motion animation. Also features the Genie-nominated The Tragic Story of Nling, a wild fable about the last citizens of Nling, forced to live on garbage and alcohol — and several other new shorts by up-and-coming and established filmmakers from across the country.
