To be kept up to date with its annual programming, visit the Sommets website.

The Sommets du cinéma d’animation, in partnership with NFB, is pleased to invite you to an Artist’s Talk with Matea Radic

Matea Radic is a multidisciplinary artist based in Winnipeg, Canada. Originally from Sarajevo, she fled her hometown in the midst of the war and has been interested in the concept of home and attachment ever since. She explores a variety of mediums, including animation, painting, murals, illustration and sculpture. Her work is infused with dark humour, which she believes to be the language of the subconscious. A surrealist at heart, she is always looking for new ways to understand her inner landscape.

During this Talk, the filmmaker will discuss the creative process behind her film Paradaïz, a surreal animated documentary based on her return home to war-torn Sarajevo. Embark on this subversive journey about finding oneself after a drawn-out game of hide-and-seek.

FREE ADMISSION but RSVP required Please email D.Forget@nfb.ca prior to March 12th
