Oscar Thiffault
Duration: 56 minutes

Stand Out of my Sunlight
Duration: 1h38
Subscription access
Joseph is an elderly man living with Diogenes syndrome, a compulsive hoarding disorder that has left his apartment overflowing. For Messaline, who comes to help him clean, it becomes an opportunity to discover him in two ways: through their conversations, and through the objects he has accumulated—layered memories of a life lived in that apartment. This film, about memory, identity, and social ...
Archeology of Light
Duration: 1h11
Subscription access
_Archeology of Light_ invites us into the heart of Minganie's landscapes in Quebec. A place surrounded by countless presences. Everything there is perception. Every perception emerges from the interplay between the observer's gaze and the living world: the trees, the moss carpeting the forest floor, the water winding through rocks, light filtered by the canopy, the sun's reflection on the restl...
Monsieur le Directeur
Duration: 56 minutes
Subscription access
“Mr. Director...” This is how letters addressed to the Director of Belgian public radio between 1958 and 1968 began. Any excuse was good enough to put pen to paper: a listener complained about the broadcast of a song with lyrics deemed too risqué, a young girl wondered how to become an announcer, factory workers wanted to hear more operettas during their lunch break, and so on. During this deca...
The White Guard
Duration: 3h40
Subscription access
The Mexican landscape fades away into ashes and dust, fragmented, defaced and scorched. Behind barbed wirefences, forests, rivers and mountains fall to the hands of private companies. Once transformed, the landscape becomes a separate universe, an incongruous and dangerous area where the new masters and their mercenaries terrorize people into silence. Like other farmers from across the country,...
Somber Tides
Duration: 24 minutes
Subscription access
_Somber Tides_ is a cry from the species, startled into survival against the elements; one last breath before being trampled by the Earth or maybe conversely a battle to wage against winds and tides clutching on before extinction.
