Regards Hybrides and FORM are partnering to feature two films each month from each of our collections. From Regards Hybrides, they will feature a film from their online collection, and from F-O-R-M, we will feature a film from our collection of commissioned films from the past 9 years.

Together, Regards Hybrides and FORM will be making monthly collaborative posts to highlight a film from each of our collections, as an effort to uplift and celebrate screendance/dance film works throughout the year from artists across Canada.

I am immensely grateful to my mother for teaching me about the good wolf and the bad wolf. A huge thank you goes out Becky McMaster and Andrew Frosst for gifting us their wonderful space to indulge this abstract story in. Thank you to Aran Wilkinson-Blanc, Kimberly Cooper and Rheanna for expanding my mental and emotional parameters for this project and to the dancers for diving wholeheartedly into the rabbit hole with me.
