Loupe is a young puppet artist who lives in a noisy back alley in a big city. Her days are spent looking for interesting stuff among the trash that she takes back to her studio, a garbage dumpster, that she has claimed for her own use. One day, among all the junk, she finds an old handmade ashtray that triggers an intense memory from her childhood. This memory drives Loupe into a frenzy of creation.

Truth and Betrayal
Director: Cliff Skelton
British Columbia. 18 minutes
Exploring the complicated themes of peer pressure and privileged information, this film uncovers the moral conflict that can arise when a teen is asked to keep secret about something that puts another person at risk. How does one make the decision to keep the confidence or share the information?

If the Weather Permits
Director: Elisapie Isaac
Nunavik. 28 minutes
In vastness of the North, on the edge of the Artic Ocean, lies the village of Kangirsujuaq, in Nunavik. Children´s laughter fills the streets, teenagers lap up “southern” culture, while the elders are still trying to get used to the strange feeling of staying put. Here, tradition and modernity intersect on a daily basis. Here, the elders are slowly dying, while their entire culture seems to be fading away. This talented filmmaker turns her gaze upon this breathtaking land.
