In doing this, however, Daniela triggers a chain of events that ends up uprooting the very foundation of her life.In conjunction with the screening of Intersection, writer, director, and producer Cecilia Araneda is also holding a master class at DARC: Producing Your First Feature Film.

About Cecilia AranedaWinnipeg-based Chilean-Canadian filmmaker and curator <a href="https://www.ceciliaaraneda.ca" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Cecilia Araneda</a> came to Canada as a child as a refugee together with her family, after they escaped Chile’s military dictatorship. This experience and its aftermath play a large role in her artistic work. Aesthetically, Araneda’s art practice is strongly rooted in the examination of private and public memory as it connects to identity, consciously working against the idea of the fully controlled image. Most well-known her work in analogue film, Araneda works in experimental, documentary and fiction forms. Araneda has completed 16 short films to date, which have screened at venues such as Visions du Réel, Ann Arbor, Images Festival, TIFF Wavelengths, RIDM and others. Her first feature film, Intersection, was released in fall 2022. Araneda holds an MFA in screenplay writing from UBC and is a three-time alumna of the Film Farm. She is additionally a nationally-recognized media art curator and a past recipient of the Canada Council’s Joan Lowndes Prize.COVID ProtocolWe are asking all attendees to please wear a mask while attending this screening.Ensuring the safety of all attendees and the DARC community is our priority.
