The Flying Sailor
Administration
The Flying Sailor is based on the Halifax explosion of 1917 when two ships collided in the Halifax Harbour causing the largest accidental explosion in history. Among the tragic stories of the disaster is the remarkable account of a sailor who, blown skyward from the deck of a British cargo steamer, flew over 2 km before landing completely unharmed, but naked except for his boots.

Stories Are in Our Bones
Administration
In this layered short film, filmmaker Janine Windolph takes her young sons fishing with their kokum (grandmother), a residential school survivor who retains a deep knowledge and memory of the land. The act of reconnecting with their homeland is a cultural and familial healing journey for the boys, who are growing up in the city. It’s also a powerful form of resistance for the women.
The Morrison Project
Producer
A delightful romp in the vein of Monty Python and Mr. Show, 'The Morrison Project' is a surreal journey that presents itself as a tale spun by the “greatest grandpa in the world,” Earnest Ol’ Pete. Pete weaves an intricate tale, spinning yarns examining such unlikely subjects as a modest serial killer, a man’s paranoid defense of his suburban home, an attempt to grow the world’s greatest grandfather and a post-apocalyptic trio trying to repopulate the earth’s plant life.
