Bare Essence of Life

Kris Rothstein

has an odd, off-kilter sense of humour and an unpredictable but captivating narrative. It does drag on for about fifteen or twenty minutes too long but it is a sweet, slightly sad film. It’s also a parable about evolution, organic vegetables and what it means to be normal.


Young director Yokohama Satoko is a total original – keep an eye on her. The film is on Tuesday the 6th at noon and the 11th at 11:40, both at the Granville. Watch

VIFF 2024: Blink

Blink is a documentary film from National Geographic, which follows a Montreal family with four children, three of whom have retinitis pigmentosa, a genetic condition causing gradual loss of vision and probable blindness. They decide to set out on a trip around the world, in order to fill their children’s visual memories, so that they can at least recall the world and its wonders.
