Tran Scan

A stunning cross-Canada journey. A sequence of 112 specially designed telescopic time-lapse scenes form a seamless “flight” across the continent from Pacific to Atlantic. A new way of seeing. A celebration and a memorial. “The telescope becomes a microscope… and a stethoscope.” – SXA “A hypnotic meditation on landscape and perspective.” – Seattle Weekly “Reminiscent of extreme IMAX films, Tran Scan has beautiful scenery and cinematography of the highest caliber. Undoubtedly the most labor-intensive travel film ever created. No still image can convey a sense of this film.” – POV Magazine Selected screenings & awards: Silver Remi Award in Cinematography, 37th Worldfest Houston International Film Festival; Yorkton Short Film & Video Festival, SK; Tampere 34th International Short Film Festival; Hot Docs Canadian International Documentary Festival, Toronto, ON
