The Journey:
FRAME BY FRAME: Voices of New Cinema began with a passion for capturing the untold stories of Edmonton’s indie filmmakers. In 2024, a small group of local filmmakers and storytellers came together, driven by the desire to showcase the creativity and resilience of Edmonton’s film scene. What started as a simple idea fueled by determination and a love for cinema. The result is an 8-part series that celebrates the art and community of independent filmmaking in Edmonton.
