A Prairie Story

Koizumi, Anne, (film director.). Verrall, David, (film producer.). Fukushima, Michael, (film producer.). National Film Board of Canada (Montreal), (film producer.).

Summary: Set to a pulsing techno beat, a prairie landscape undergoes a metamorphosis from rural idyll to over-urbanized dystopia. Director Anne Koizumi laments the changing face of her home town, Calgary, in this pointed critique of the bacteria-like spread of suburbia and exurbia. A Prairie Story was made for Hothouse 3, the NFB's program for emerging filmmakers, whose central theme was "Air & Home".
