Screenings of ‘Seth’s Dominion’ Documentary
Posted: September 30, 2014
Back in June at ELCAF I was lucky enough to once again interview Canadian cartoonist extraordinaire Seth. It would be hard to imagine an easier, more generous and enlightening interviewee. Seth is best known for books like Palookaville, cover art for Aimee Mann, the Criterion Collection and The New Yorker, and a collaborator of Lemony Snicket’s.
Seth was mentioning a documentary by Luc Chamberland based around his fictional locale of Dominion, part filmed reportage about his life, creative processes and philosophies, part animated/puppetry recreations of his comics. The film recently won the award for Best Feature at the Ottawa International Animation Festival.
The Raindance Festival in London is screening this 42-minute gem, entitled Seth’s Dominion, on Saturday October 4th at 3.40pm - book your tickets here! It will also be screened in the UK as part of the Leeds Film Festival. Meanwhile, to savour the flavour, try one clip…. and try another clip!
