Incorporated in 1974, we encourage the production, presentation, distribution and preservation of films of a social, artistic, experimental
and educational nature and to enhance the production and appreciation of film making.
The Winnipeg Film Group has three distinct departments, each working towards their own, if interconnected, objectives. These centres
are the Dave Barber Cinematheque, Distribution Centre and Production/Training Centre.

  • b.longing

    film/video, 2025

    where do we belong; what do we long for? b.longing is a short poetic home video/documentary that explores the question of belonging from within our neo-colonial, imperialist context. Questions of race, nationality, queerness, work, place and time are explored through a visual language rooted in frank discussions between loved ones. In the end, it's this exact familial dynamic—and the process of making the movie itself—that begins to answer these questions.
