Un luthier pas comme les autres

2014 9 min
Leaving soon

Ce court métrage documentaire dresse le portrait unique en son genre de Lorne Collie, un machiniste à la retraite qui fabrique d'étranges instruments à cordes à partir d'objets inusités : les râteaux, les pelles, panneaux d'arrêt et les fourches se transforment en banjos ou en violons parfaitement utilisables. En assemblant les images de documentaires surannées et les plans d'animation réalisés à la main, le cinéaste Mike Maryniuk nous partage la passion de cet homme qui se sent heureux et plus vivant que jamais en créant.
