Black Gold
Directed by Aimée van Drimmelen
This animated short employs hand-drawn animation layered over stop-motion sequences of moving ink on drumskins to create a striking, mournful portrait of the Alberta tar sands. This film was made as part of the 7th edition of the NFB's Hothouse apprenticeship.
