the stretch of home - understanding home as liminality

Water Sark dir. Joyce Wieland (Canada, 1965, 14 mins)

Content warning: nudity

Joyce Wieland describes Water Sark as a “film sculpture, drawing being made while you wait”. The fluid motions of this abstract short turn the pieces inside one’s house into something less-than-familiar. Wieland artfully bends the domestic through glass, light, water, into a living contemplation of both the home and the artistic process of making meaning.

Like a Dog or a Boat, you tether it dir. Myles Wheeler (UK, 2018, 85 mins)

After locking himself out of his university bedroom, Myles Wheeler returns to his family home with his camcorder. What ensues is comedic, thought-provoking, deeply personal and sweet all at once. An attempt to grapple with the way life changes before you can realise it; this is a documentary-vlog feature about not quite being at home with yourself.
