In 1998 filmmaker Deco Dawson appeared on the filmmaking scene in Winnipeg, Manitoba, reintroducing techniques of the silent period, particularily the use of adrenalin-infused quick-paced editing, the use of lens obstructions and authentic period photography. Dawson has since created 7 short films, all chronicled in this DVD edition, and has received much international acclaim. Dawson’s filmography has been featured in its entirety as special screenings at the Cinematheque Ontario, the Pacific Cinematheque, the Canadian Film Institute, the Calgary International Film Festival, the Northwest Film Forum, Cinema du Clef, as well as numerous others.
