On this episode we explore a film that is a haunting love letter to dying way of life. Sweetland is the story of an endangered Newfoundland community and the struggles of one man determined to resist its extinction. Faced with community pressure and offered substantial money, he wants to live out the rest of his life in his home.
We interviewed writer and director, Christian Sparkes.
Christian Sparkes is an award winning writer and director hailing from Newfoundland, Canada. He has directed numerous episodes of television and his films have screened at the world's top festivals including TIFF, Fantastic Fest and Busan. An alumnus of the prestigious Canadian Film Centre in Toronto, Christian's debut feature Cast No Shadow was nominated for four Canadian Screen Awards including Best Picture. His sophomore feature Hammer starring Will Patton and Mark O'Brien debuted in 2020 and received widespread acclaim from Roger Ebert and The Hollywood Reporter, amongst others. His third and fourth feature films, Sweetland and The King Tide, are set to be released in 2023, the latter of which was selected for TIFF's prestigious Platform Program.
The 2023 Atlantic International Film Festival is just around the corner, and with it comes a new line-up of films across a fresh collection of streams. This podcast showcases the voices of filmmakers whose work will feature in the 2023 program, going deep behind the vision and motivation for each film.
