Multiverse Dating for Beginners

Multiverse Dating for Beginners | Comedy, 13:02, English, BC, 2017 | Director: Kelly Tatham

Ivy and Dave are totally hitting it off until she says the wrong thing and completely freaks him out. TYPICAL.

But tonight’s no ordinary night. There’s a glitch in the Matrix, déjà vu in the air, and Ivy gets the chance to see how things will turn out if she plays the dating game differently.

I am Syd Stone

I am Syd Stone | Drama, 11:00, English, ON, 2014 | Director: Denis Theriault

A Hollywood heartthrob returns home to rekindle an old closeted relationship.

Girl Epidemic

Girl Epidemic | Documentary, 1:12, English, ON, 2018 | Director: Indrani Pal-Chaudhuri

Girls are being treated like they’re an infectious disease. Millions disappear every year – many are victims of infanticide, sex slavery and child labour. Fortunately, there is a cure: education.

Posted: 09 Apr 2019 09:24 AM PDT

Warigami, a new series from director Jason Lapeyre (NSI Features First) and producer Laura Perlmutter (NSI Drama Prize), has its world premiere at this year’s Canneseries short form competition. Two episodes will screen tomorrow, April 10, at the Espace Miramar in Cannes.

In Warigami, Wendy Ohata has just made three startling realizations:

One, she has a twin brother named Vincent.

Two, she’s a kami-jin – a descendent of an ancient Japanese people who can turn paper into deadly weapons.

And three, there’s a kami-jin warrior named Sadako hunting her down for reasons she doesn’t understand.
