I’ll be off to Toronto in two weeks for the Moving Images Film Festival. Searching For Emily will be screening at the Toronto Underground Cinema, 186 Spadina (at the corner of Spadina and Queen Street West) on October 16th, 5:30 to be followed with a Q&A with me. I’m looking forward to seeing Searching For Emily on the big screen and having the opportunity to meet other filmmakers and artists at the festival.

Searching For Emily is screening in the Best of Can-Con Showcase. The films in this catagory are chosen because they speak to the following questions:

What is Canada’s message to the world? What makes Canadian films unique? How is the world seen through the eyes and ears of Canadian filmmakers? These films must symbolize what it is to be Canadian, and have Canadian content only.

The exhibition that Searchng For Emily is based on, The Other Emily, which has been at the Royal BCMuseum through 2011, will also be moving to a gallery in Vancouver for the summer of 2012. Very exciting news that the exhibition will be travelling further afield!
