A Toronto-A-Go-Go Film showcase

Ski Boys
A beautifully shot short movie in which the eponymous Boys pull all kinds of nutty/suicidal stunts on home-made machines that mash-up functionality with absurdity. 12ft high bicycles and skis transformed into cross country skate boards are amongst the inventions you’ll see transporting these guys around the wilds of Ontario.

PK20: a short film by Corwyn Lund
The PK20 chair was designed by Danish furniture-architect Poul Kjaerholm in 1967. The PK20 video repurposes this design classic as a means of transportation across the Canadian landscape.
Monkey warfare
Director Reginald Harkema, 2006 75mins
starring Nadia Litz, Don McKellar, Rachel Wilson
Dan and Linda’s lives are turned upside down when an enigmatic, young radical named Susan, who trades in ‘green beans’ enters the scene just as their dope dealer is busted. As Dan and Linda grow closer to Susan, they come to learn about revolutionary activities she is involved with that could threaten them. As it turns out, Susan’s guerrilla antics are nothing compared to what she eventually learns about Dan and Linda’s past.
Monkey Warfare is a film about history, objects, love and revolution- a cautionary tale about keeping up the fight.
