ARIA 夢姬

Set in the year 2050, ARIA 夢姬 is a CGI animated speculative short film. In the smart surveillance city of Dream Harbor, a fourth-generation female AI agent named ARIA is on the verge of obsolescence. She is the product of a state-run “Cyber Road Initiative” designed to address labor shortages and declining birth rates. Modeled after a famous late actress, she is the image of “grace and restraint” and domestic femininity. The work references Donna Haraway’s “A Cyborg Manifesto” and ideas of a post-gender future.

Muskie Man

Celebrated as an authority in the world of muskie fishing, Larry Ramsell now finds himself estranged from the tight-knit community of Hayward, Wisconsin—the so-called Muskie Capital of the World. At 82, Larry is a man consumed by obsession, his encyclopedic knowledge and unrelenting passion for muskie fishing having cost him dearly: three marriages, lifelong friendships, and his place among the very people who once revered him. Set against the icy, unforgiving waters of the St. Lawrence River, Muskie Man follows Larry as he prepares for one last hunt to claim the fish of a lifetime. As he navigates the physical toll of his age and the emotional weight of his exile, the film explores the fragile balance between obsession and isolation.

Making a Killing is a feature documentary film exposing the massive scandal behind the taking of wealth, land, and power from the Canadian public to benefit indigenous tribes.

Making a Killing is the first documentary film produced by an elected caucus.

Soul of the Foot

Through Soul of the Foot, Mustafa Uzuner delivers a meditation in three movements that reflect a piece of Turkish history: the country’s interrupted attempt to join the European Union, which is still pending. The film spans 25 years and explores the intimate and collective memory of this project. First, families and the media gather to bear witness to the 1999 eclipse. Then, there’s a leap in time as politics infiltrates the filmmaker’s daily life and family interactions in the context of the country entering into negotiations. Finally, a present time unfolds like an urban symphony, where a collection of fragments of existence, captured on film, documents the aftermath. Without nostalgia or resentment, this essay attempts to animate Turkey’s past and future potential with sensitivity and detail.
