Two powerful and award-winning documentaries from the National Film Board of Canada (NFB) will be featured at the 2024 Rendezvous with Madness Film Festival in Toronto, taking place October 25 to November 3.
The festival's opening night film, Vancouver-based filmmaker Jules Arita Koostachin's WaaPaKe (Tomorrow) unravels the tangled threads of silence suffered by residential school Survivors through truth, freedom and power.
The festival will host the Ontario premiere of Montreal filmmakers Brian M. Cassidy and Melanie Shatzky's immersive documentary fable A Man Imagined, a bracingly intimate and hallucinatory portrait of a man with schizophrenia surviving amidst urban detritus and decay.
