Amanita Pestilens (Feature Film - French version): A man obsessed with his award-winning lawn goes to great lengths to keep it looking great when mushrooms suddenly start appearing all over the yard.
Beehives (Short Film 1 - with French subtitles): A young woman works through a particular memory in her past with her therapist.
Expo Film (Short Film 2 - with French subtitles): Using anonymous home movie footage of Expo '67 in Montreal, the artist sets out to recreate a memory that perhaps never existed.
About the Pairings:
Beehives: One of three Ottawa-based films about memory in this screening, Beehives uses its brevity to underscore the weight that even the most unassuming moments of the past can hold.
Expo Film: Immersing viewers in found footage from 1967 Montréal, Expo Film (this film is my memory) is the perfect amuse-bouche for a feature length visit to 1963 Ottawa in Amanita Pestilens.
