A Prairie Story

Anne Koizumi
2006 | 1 min
In this short animation film a prairie landscape undergoes a metamorphosis from rural idyll to over-urbanized dystopia. Director Anne Koizumi laments the changing face of her hometown of Calgary in this critique of the bacteria-like spread of suburbia and exurbia.

Produced as part of the third edition of the NFB’s Hothouse apprenticeship.
