O Canada…2

Tuesday, February 27th, 2007

New addition to our Festival Tour: the 14th edition of Toronto’s HotDocs, North America’s largest documentary festival. April 19-29, 2007. Sneek-peek announcement made today.
We presented the film there last year as a work-in-progress during the Toronto Doc Forum pitch market, so it’s nice to be bringing the completed work back. Many thanks, and looking forward to being back in Toronto!

O Canada…

Monday, February 26th, 2007

“30 Century Man is a fascinating and entertaining exploration of one of the most extraordinary careers in pop culture. I have rarely seen a biographical documentary that is able to make the viewer experience the perspective of a devoted fan, a concerned friend, and a complete stranger at the same time. Like Scott Walker himself, this is an absolutely unique film.” Atom Egoyan

Humbling words from another favorite maverick, Canadian filmmaker Atom Egoyan. Many thanks!
