Alberta Number One is a contemporary revisionist Western. Instead of guns, the characters brandish movie cameras and microphones as they explore the disjointed, sometimes dangerous "wild west" of Alberta's museums and roadside attractions. Punctuated by moments of extraordinary tenderness and unexpected violence, Alberta Number One invokes poetry, magic, and prayer to imagine a more radical, caring form of wildness on Canada's Western frontier.
Director Alexander Carson in attendance.

Immortals is an experimental documentary short film shot in 8mm that explores the introspection of an artist, Bettina Szabo. The film delves into her relationship with her sense of belonging, her body, her imagination, and nature. Sometimes one must lose oneself to find oneself better, and burn everything down to start anew on a solid foundation.
