Alberta Culture Days (2018)

2018 Festival

Sun, Sep 30 @ 7:30 pm - GPLT

Presented by the Reel Shorts Film Society and PRIMAA (Peace Region Independent Media Arts Association), DEMONETIZED and WALL cover most of the province artistically speaking. DEMONETIZED is a 10-minute Grande Prairie documentary directed by Patrick O’Connor (Jimber Jam Studios) and produced by Rew Jones (Checkered Owl Media & Arts) about Internet content creators in Grande Prairie and Edmonton who were, and still are in some cases, making money with their YouTube channels. After a Q&A with these filmmaker(s), the second film will screen. WALL is a 79-minute animated documentary produced by the Edmonton office of the NFB (National Film Board of Canada), directed by Calgary animator Cam Christiansen, and written by UK playwright and screenwriter David Hare about the wall separating Israel and Palestine. With powerful images, it portrays life in the shadow of the wall, the reasons it came into being, and what it means to build a wall physically and philosophically. Local, Albertan, and global – in a span of two hours with two insightful documentaries!
