Director Chris Landreth brings together the two best streams of Canadian filmmaking – documentary and animation – in the Oscar winning film Ryan. This NFB sponsored short is a first-person, animated documentary about former Oscar nominated NFB animator Ryan Larkin, now an alcoholic living on the streets of Montreal.
There’s a reason it won just about every possible animated short film award in 2004 and 2005. I can’t recommend this film enough. And thanks to You Tube’s Screening Room, I can offer you the film in its entirety.
Absolutely brilliant film, deserves a bigger audience!
I couldn’t agree more. I’m looking forward to seeing his new short which is in festivals right now.
