Styles ranging from eco-processing to optical printing, the filmmakers use the medium of analogue filmmaking to conjure up otherworldly scenes. The name for the show comes from Evagenline Belzile’s film Left With Dreams, which will be featured in the screening along with several other established and emerging artists from across North America. 


Featuring work by Lindsay McIntyre, Svava Tergesen, Jae Lew, Rea Saxena, Zoe Kirk-Gushowaty, Dawn George, Caitlin Diaz, Evangeline Belzile, Kellen Jackson and Jeffrey Ellom.
