Local filmmakers are bringing the powerful documentary AMPLIFY HER featuring comics and animated works from 3 Emily Carr alumni; Kristen Turcotte (animation), Krista Gibbard and Molly AppleJohn (illustration) to Vancouver with two back-to-back screenings at the Rio Theatre on November 28th.
Expect to meet many amazing members of various studios from around town at the screening!
AMPLIFY HER is a documentary film, graphic novel and animated motion comic series exploring the rise of female artists in the electronic music scene. Imagined and brought to life by more than 21 female creators across North America – many of them based in Vancouver – the 89-minute feature follows seven up-and-coming stars as they find their unique voices within a male-dominated realm.
On the surface, it’s a story about women in the electronic music industry, but the film’s deeper message is the resurgence of “the feminine” in Western culture.

Featuring a live performance by c o z y before the screening.
Late show: 8:30 pm (doors at 7:45pm)
