This retrospective features an eclectic mix of films from the mind of Winnipeg-based filmmaker Ryan Steel. Steel’s work completely disregards genre boundaries, exploring the intersection between experimental, documentary, and fiction filmmaking. From bus commutes to mall culture to Peter Nygard, Steele’s significant output of films highlights the tedious beauty of the mundane. With a clear respect for DIY and analogue aesthetics, this retrospective will be sure to inspire every DIY filmmaker who sees it. —Tori Fleming
