How do you define movement? This is a question that grounds our work, inspiring artists to deepen the scope and expand the possibilities of what recorded movement can be.
At the heart of FORM lies our annual Commissioning Fund Program, a moment when the ambitious creativity of Youth and Emerging artists is harnessed. Over six months, artists transform their unique perspectives on movement to be told through filmmaking. Their ideas are supported through creative workshops, mentorship, and peer discussions. Not only is this program a catalyst for these artists to share their distinctively powerful stories, it is also an opportunity for their voices as creative leaders to be nourished.
We are thrilled to support these artists’ bold approaches as they redefine the container of what a filmmaking process can be, from beginning to end. The core of each film highlights the expansive potential of recorded movement. It is an honour to premiere these inspiring new films on the big screen for all to witness and experience for the first time!
This program is made possible by Commissioning Fund Production Partners: Cineworks, VIVO Media Arts Centre, Charles Street Video, Ed Video Media Arts Centre, Calgary Society of Independent Filmmakers and Co-Commissioning Partners: O.dela Arts, Plastic Orchid Factory.
Human Nature is an exploration of the masculine and the feminine energies in relationship to the Earth. Through movement, imagery, and sound, the film reflects on how these forces exist within us and within the natural world, inviting viewers to witness their harmony and tension.
