Tinkertown (1999)

Commissioned by Stephen Kent Jusick of MIX - NY, premiered at Anthology Film Archives. Deco Dawson and I drove to Regina for our first taste of optical printing at Sask Film Pool. The guitar player on the right is Serge LaCroix, a shaman friend whose been semi-conscious in a coma for a few years now. He complained a lot when I shaved his chest for the shoot, but I'm glad he's preserved on film. -Noam Gonick
