I’m thrilled to announce that my film lessons on flight (2024) has been selected for screening at RIDM as part of its National Short and Medium Length Competition.
lessons on flight will screen at the Cinémathèque Québecoise on Thurs Nov 21 at 9:15 PM and Sun Nov 24 at
Shot on B&W 16 mm film, eco-processed with olives and hand coloured on site in rural Chile, lessons on flight examines the flight patterns of the green-backed firecrown hummingbird.
Special thanks to Franci Duran, Elian Mikkola, Chad Tremblay, the Araneda Espinoza family and the Canada Council for the Arts for making this film possible.
In memory of María Laurina Espinoza Hernández, who planted the gardens the hummingbirds feed on, and who wished for this place to never be forgotten.
