When the Rain Maker came to
Dawson City.
Christopher Healey, Yukon, Experimental, 2m
On August 10, 1905, the Yukon Government entered into a
contract with Charles Hatfield, a self-proclaimed “moisture
accelerator” — a rain maker.
Bridge
Aubyn O’Grady and Evan Rensch, Yukon, Experimental, 5m
The ice bridge in Dawson City hasn’t formed in years,
dividing the town by open water year round. Solutions have
been numerous and varied, ranging from an ice cannon
to building an actual bridge. BRIDGE considers the ethical,
spiritual, and philosophical impact bridges have on our
collective psyche.
Europe? Europe Who?
Leah Byrne , Chris Clarke, David Curtis
Yukon,Narrative, 5m
Desparate for work in the dark winter months, this West
Dawson comedic low life replies to an unlikely ad in the
local rag, that may be almost the perfect fit for his thin skill
set.
Foretold
Lulu Keating, Yukon, Animation, 8m
There is so much that we don’t understand. An injured artist
ponders a seemingly prescient dream.
Ice Fog Sun
Jeffrey Langille, Yukon, Experimental, 3m
Ice Fog Sun was made during a walk along the Yukon
River on an extremely cold day in January 2018. All editing
was done in-camera, leaving a certain amount to chance,
and acknowledging the responses of camera, film, and
filmmaker to the conditions of the world in that moment.
