resfest

it's never too late for a last minute decision, so i went to resfest, a festival of short films, music videos and animation. this year and for the first time the festival made a stop in montréal, to be more precise at ex-centris. i've watched cancon, a 'best of' canadian videos and short films. most of the films were really good. for example robota by marc beurteaux was excellent (and appears on the dvd that comes along with this month's res magazine). one more thing about ex-centris: just buying the tickets is an experience. you don't see the girl that sells the tickets in person but on a tv screen. while she sits behind the television, with a camera in front of her. weird.
