Risking ellipses and question marks, Canadian director Kazik Radwanski traces the ambiguous forms that romance can take with Matt and Mara. Through the surprises and genuine laughs of improvisation, the talented leads articulate a rare, real attraction for which there are, ordinarily, only clichés.

Filmed on a bygone video camera, Stinking Heaven immerses you in the darkest crevices of the 1990s: a rehab commune housing a coven of colorful yet caustic personalities. A lucid vision of Sartre’s assertion that “hell is other people,” written with an utmost sincere sense of anarchy. Oddly sublime.

Echoing the disorientation of grief through a fragmented structure, this work of collaboration between Sofia Bohdanowicz, Deragh Campbell, Burak Çevik, and Blake Williams alleviates a broken soul by epistolary means. 3D imagery tessellates with 16mm and video footage in a prism of cinematic healing.
