Eastern Anthems Awarded the Prix Pierre-et-Yolande-Perrault
Documentary Lab project Eastern Anthems by CDM member Jean-Jacques Martinod and filmmaker Matthew Wolkow has been awarded the Pierre-et-Yolande-Perrault award for best first or second feature length documentary at Les Rendez-vous Québec Cinéma.
Synopsis:
An unfinished film is passed along from one friend to another. The dialog between them is a journey crossed by the swarming of the Great Eastern Brood X of periodical cicadas that prophetically emerge every 17 years in the United States, invoking a reflection of a post-pandemic present and our shared futures.
A road movie composed of a chorus of voices (both human and non-human), the warnings of history, the power of nature and rebirth.
