Chronicling an exquisitely complicated relationship to his hometown, family, and himself, Edmonton's Trevor Anderson brilliantly transforms ugly truths into radiant, laugh-out-loud vignettes. Articulated literally in his own voice, Anderson's films power wash the surface of Dirt City with show tunes and impeccable comedic timing to reveal a deeply heartfelt, resentful affection for Canada's wild rose country. Drawing on everything from animation to musical theatre, Anderson's films have screened multiple times at many A-list and LGBTQ film festivals, including three times at Sundance.
His latest Sundance success, Docking, was scheduled to screen at last year’s inaugural IFFO in front of past Café Ex alum Matthew Rankin's first feature film, The Twentieth Century before... well, you know what happened. Instead, following the films, join Matthew as he hosts a discussion of Trevor Anderson's life and career up to this point with the guest of honour himself.

An experimental behind-the-scenes doc, shot in red/cyan 3D, about the making of Trevor Anderson's penis thriller Docking. If you have a pair of red/cyan 3D glasses, pop 'em on! If not, it works in 2D too.
