PRIMORDIAL TIES

Official Selection — 40th International Film Festival Rotterdam

Canada 2011; Written, produced and directed by Otto Buj; 89 minutes

PRIMORDIAL TIES is the coming-of-age story of Marjorie, a beautiful 19-year-old who imagines that she was born motherless, created through extraordinary, magical means by her mysterious and long-dead father as the daughter that he never had.

“It’s truly hard to describe an Otto Buj film without experiencing it. A dedicated and uncompromising filmmaker at heart, he makes films that both haunt and provoke, lingering in your mind long after the last credit rolls.” – 2011 Victoria Film Festival

The screening will be followed by an extended artist’s talk. The screening and artist’s talk are presented with the support of Nora Moroun.
