Inspired by social distancing guidelines and “shelter-in-place” mandates in the era of COVID-19, SHELTER offers a glimpse of how 26 professional dancers across the globe are experiencing the pandemic, and captures artists' resilience in the face of unprecedented times.
Shelter is a multi-layered experimental film that cleverly weaves archival social commentary and recent political activism in a playful analysis of our culture’s misplaced priorities. The film blends a variety of appropriated material — including a homeless demonstration during the gala premiere of an Atom Egoyan film at the Toronto Film Festival — with archival footage of circuses, westerns, and Pierre Burton discussing the pros and cons of building a bomb shelter. Shelter also celebrates the inherent qualities of the film medium, qualities that have quickly become marginalized through the current obsession with digital technology.
A verité documentary that follows three young children and their families as they grapple with housing insecurity in Los Angeles.
The only film, made while still a student, by the promising cinematographer and director Uma Segal, who died in 1991. The film deals with slum demolition in Bombay, a major political issue in the early 80s (and also the subject of Patwardhan’s Hamara Shaher, 1985). It intercuts interviews with various concerned individuals, and ends with documentary shots of an actual demolition. Demolitions are nothing new. Over the years they have taken place again and again. Periodically municipal squads armed with crowbars smash through clusters of huts and cart away the debris of personal belongings in garbage vans. The films hopes to emphasize the injustice of a system which creates slums and then batters an already deprived population further by demolishing their homes. PUCL, lawyers collective and a citizen's vigilance committee debate the issue while people whose huts have been demolished relate their experiences.
With a catastrophic event rapidly approaching, 18 people vie for 10 spots in the small town's only bomb shelter.
While many have migrated to new spaces during the pandemic, we've all become intimately familiar with the places we call home over the past two years. It's a basic human need, but we're increasingly transient—and in a virtual world, where is our community? Returning to her rural Ontario hometown Horning's Mills and its philosophical residents, filmmaker Tess Girard delicately ponders the spaces we choose to occupy. Conversations with a youthful gravedigger who provides locals with their final resting place contrast with an eccentric elderly couple who plan to save humanity with a bunker of buried school buses known as Ark Two. Girard seeks solace through these interactions while attempting to reconnect to her roots, questioning where she is meant to be. This deeply personal meditation embraces bucolic landscapes down to the smallest detail and grounds itself in quiet, reflective moments.
