The View from Here
2018
As we approach death, each of us encounters a unique set of experiences and impressions-the sum of our time spent and our choices. It has been said that death is like a wall; as we near the wall, our instinct is to turn and face the past. Through a series of interviews with terminally ill men and women, The View From Here is an exploration of how life looks after a terminal diagnosis and before a final breath- an unflinching attempt to undo the taboos that keep us afraid and alone at the end.DESIGN TALKS

No Price Too High
1995
star 10The Canadian contribution to World War Two was extraordinary in scale and variety. More than one million people, out of nation of just eleven million, volunteered to serve. To transform a small, virtually unequipped military into a powerful army, navy and air force was a remarkable achievement. No Price Too High traces Canada's involvement from the prewar years through 1945, explaining the events of the war in the context of the political and military realities of the time. There is none of the second guessing that has characterized so much recent analysis of the war. No Price Too High draws on original sources - personal letters and diary entries, and powerful photographs - to evoke the mood of those momentous years. The thoughts, hopes, dreams, fears, and heartbreaks of the generation of Canadians who faced the war are captured. Produced by Norflicks, No Price Too High chronicles Canada's role in the major events of the war, including The Battle of Britain, Dieppe and D-Day.Apocalypse: Never-Ending War (1918-1926)
