#DRIFFDriveIn. Shifting the Narrative is a Canadian showcase that pairs three acclaimed feature films with short films by emerging directors.
Short Film - TBA
Short Film - 'Heap' by Kyle Marchen and Van Wickiam (DRIFF Incubator winners)
‘Heap,’ is a dark comedy about a disturbed and disillusioned tenant who discovers a strange Utopian community in the building next door and the tangled web she weaves to get what she wants. It explores issues of social hierarchy, the lack of affordable housing, and mental health.
Feature Presentation - 'Sleeping Giant' by Andrew Cividino (89 minutes):
Adam is spending his summer vacation with his parents on rugged Lake Superior. His dull routine is shattered when he befriends Riley and Nate, smart aleck cousins who pass their ample free time with debauchery and reckless cliff jumping. The revelation of a hurtful secret triggers Adam to set in motion a series of irreversible events that test the bonds of friendship and change the boys forever.
DRIFF acknowledges the support of the Canada Council for the Arts and the Town of Whitby.
Location : 575 Rossland Rd. E., Whitby, in the parking lot behind the municipal building
