Montreal buttered, Saskatchewan bred production trio Arid Sea Films (Lea Nakonechny, Adam Budd, Simon Nakonechny) are soon to release their latest flick “Edge of the Desert.” This latest film by Lea Nakonechny (Two Museums) has an art-house feel that follows in the great traditions of Canadian filmmakers.
Why should you watch: Arid Sea Films, while based in Quebec, are at the vanguard of Saskatchewan’s bourgeoning cinematic identity. While those unfamiliar with Canada’s central all-too orthogonal prairie province might find this fact risible, Arid Sea Films reminds us that our roots, no matter how humble, hold currency and, moreover, fill a much needed gap in Canada’s overall cinematic idiom. You can check out the teaser for “Edge of the Desert” via imdb. “Edge of the Desert” premiers at the Toronto International Film Festival. (ASF)
