DIM Cinema Mon Aug 30 | Death by VHS: New Cinematic Discoveries from Winnipeg, MB

Monday August 30 7:30pm $10.50 + $3membership
Pacific Cinematheque 1131 Howe St. www.dimcinema.ca www.cinematheque.bc.ca
Curated by Clint Enns and Leslie Supnet IN ATTENDANCE!

A long, rich history of lo-budget inventiveness is woven into the civic consciousness of Winnipeg, Manitoba, the birthplace of K-Tel, Hunky Bill’s Perogie Maker, and the Green Garbage Bag.  Countless Winnipeg artists have utilized the same Do-It-Yourself spirit in their practice, speaking to tradition as well as environmental necessity. Enriched with strange humour, hand-crafted experimentation and lo-fi/high-tec conundrums, the films and videos in this program are testaments to an aesthetic movement that is wholeheartedly Winnipeg's own.

We are proud to present films from our beloved bargain-hungry municipality.
