Microscope Gallery is very pleased to present an evening of 16mm films and
videos organized by Winnipeg-based filmmaker and curator Aaron Zeghers
featuring a 68-minute program of confessional works by 9 artists, spanning
five decades between the years of 1972 and 2018.

>From Aaron Zeghers:

*A program of the short “cinematic confessional” is a survey of the most
glorious individuals.  They are the people I love – the perverts,
miscreants and ne’er do wells. These are the stories that society has
assigned something to confess about, in the first place. But unlike the
christian confessional (see also “broom closet”), or the crowded judicial
confessional stand, this is not a punitive confessional. As we will witness
on glorious 16mm and video on this fateful eve of August 28th, the
cinematic confessional is a joyous reclaiming of every throbbing inch of
our being…”*

Aaron Zeghers will be in attendance to introduce the event and available
for a Q&A following the screening.
