FORCED CHANGE is a feature documentary that uses the path of destruction left behind by Hurricane Katrina as a vehicle to bring to life unique human stories that shed light on what it means to be home. Filmed at critical moments over the last fourteen years, FORCED CHANGE is a heart-breaking retrospective of four unique and relatable, but displaced, characters that left New Orleans after the hurricane and never returned home.

Great chat with the filmmaker Rennik Soholt on the 15 year process making this film. Rennik is an accomplished Emmy Nominated Producer. See IMDB credits.

Film playing at the Documentary Film Festival this Friday Jan. 29th. RSVP your FREE tickets and stream for free at home.

MEMEMTO MORI is one of the more creative and innovative short films that you’ll ever see. Played at our LGBTQ+ Film Festival in January 2021.

Great chat with the filmmaker Derek Elliot Bagley on the process of making this film and moving from Chicago to Montreal while making it.

Film Website: http://mementomori.film/

Summary of Film: At the center of this stylized, allegorical melodrama, a tyrannical matriarch lies helpless and alone on her deathbed. Her family – scattered in different corners of the house – impatiently wait for their unbeloved queen to finally die. The audience becomes a voyeur into this private, claustrophobic world where the Matriarch’s daughters trade biting insults, her maid steals her jewelry, and her grandchildren discuss gay sex while doing drugs. After she takes her last breath, surrounded by kitsch mementos in-lieu of adoring mourners, her family members, and the audience, are confronted with processing the death of someone who’s legacy is questionable.

THE GRIN OF EVIL is one of the best Fan Fiction film you’ll ever see. It’s also a teaser to a much bigger story. Interview with the director/star Alejandro Fanzgo and the producer Anne Valmont in Argentina.

Summary of Film: The Grin of Evil aims to explore the Joker's philosophy from his peculiar point of view and away from his faithful adversary. It's a journey of what lies behind the jokes and laughs: each chapter offers a different approach of the character, who will be portrayed in various styles. As fans, our main interest is to pay tribute to the characters that made a difference in our childhood and teenage years. The idea of bringing these characters and their universe to life from the vignettes is exhilarating. We feel committed to develop a creative challenge that would bring out the best of each artist, making it personal to us and to the viewers as well.
