1. Special Screenings
THE ONE MINUTE FILM & VIDEO FESTIVAL
Sunday, December 12th - Toronto, Bloor Cinema http://www.minutefilmfest.com
The One Minute Film and Video Festival is back!
Due to popular demand, we will be holding a repeat screening on Sunday, December 12, 2004 at the Bloor Cinema (506 Bloor St. W.). The show starts at 4:30pm and tickets are $7 at the door.
Fifty-three films and videos were screened at the original 2004 festival before an enthusiastic crowd of 700. Each screened entry is based around the same theme, firsts, although contributing artists have been encouraged to interpret the theme as broadly as desired, and in any genre they choose. As a result, the One Minute Film and Video Festival is made up of new work - almost all of it having been produced to meet the requirements of the theme.

Thirty-eight years and still going strong, THIS Magazine is one of Canada's longest-publishing alternative journals. Founded by a gang of school activists in 1966, and originally called This Magazine Is About Schools, the modern-day THIS focuses on Canadian politics, literature and culture but, in keeping with its radical roots, never pulls punches. Subversive, edgy and smart, THIS is the real alternative to that. Visit THIS Magazine's new-and-improved website http://www.thismagazine.ca!
