Canadian Titles Announced (Three Weeks Ago!)

The Canadian titles were announced a few weeks ago and in the interest of doggedly pursuing silly, pointless minutiae, I've listed them below. Note: I haven't linked to the Canadian retrospective titles or the short films. They may be wonderful, but my time is limited and I have a feeling yours is too.

• Away from Her (Sarah Polley)
• Brand Upon the Brain! (Guy Maddin)
• Congorama (Philippe Falardeau)
• Manufactured Landscapes (Jennifer Baichwal)
• EMPz 4 LIFE (Allan King)
• Fido (Andrew Currie)
• Acts of Imagination (Carolyn Cox)
• La Coupure (Jean Chateauvert)
• End of the Line (Maurice Devereaux)
• Everything's Gone Green (Paul Fox)
• Mercy (Mazdak Taebi)
• A Stone's Throw (Camelia Frieberg)
• Sur la Trace D'Igor Rizzi (Noel Mitrani)
• Cheech (Patrice Sauve)
• Citizen Duane (Michael Mabbot)
• Monkey Warfare (Reginald Harkema)
• Sleeping Dogs (Terrence Odette)
• Unnatural and Accidental (Carl Bessai)
• Un Dimanche a Kigali (Robert Favreau)
• Dans les Villes (Catherine Martin)
• L'Esprit Des Lieux (Catherine Martin)
• Radiant City (Jim Brown & Gary Burns)
• Remembering Arthur (Martin Lavant)

Of these, the Guy Maddin is definitely the most interesting. A silent film, presented with live foley and music? It's bound to be sell out, but that won't keep me from trying. Of the rest, I've heard interesting stuff about Everything's Gone Green, Fido has zombies, and a handful of other films here have interesting premises. I didn't catch any Canadian films last year, but this year's crop might be intriguing.

As always, feel free to throw out a comment, especially if you've heard anything interesting about these or any other films. It's all appreciated.
