When an alien invasion rocks the quiet hamlet of Pangnirtung, Nunavut, it falls on a group of teenage girls to fight back and defend their community. Her feature directing debut, Slash/Back offers a stylish vision from producer-director Nyla Innuksuk. Using makeshift weapons and their own horror movie knowledge, the quartet of teens show the invaders that “nobody f—s with the girls from Pang.” With a cast of local actors and an Inuit cultural lens on the invasion genre, this teen horror-comedy has more charm than an Arctic summer day has sunlight!
“Slash/Back has an endearing charm that is hard to resist.” - Phuong Le, The Guardian
2022. 86 min. English with French subtitles.
Lorsqu’une invasion extraterrestre secoue le hameau tranquille de Pangnirtung, au Nunavut, c’est à un groupe d’adolescentes qu’il revient de riposter et de défendre leur communauté. La productrice-réalisatrice Nyla Innuksuk offre une perspective élégante dans Slash/Back, son premier long métrage. À l’aide d’armes de fortune et de leurs connaissances des films d’horreur, les quatre adolescentes montrent aux envahisseurs que « personne ne s’en prend aux filles de Pang ». Portée par des acteurs locaux et une approche culturelle inuite sur le thème de l'invasion, cette comédie d'horreur pour adolescents a plus de charme qu'une journée d'été arctique n'a de soleil !
« Slash/Back a un charme attachant auquel il est difficile de résister. » – Phuong Le, The Guardian

Not your average film about hockey, nor your average musical, Score delivers loads of action, laughs and romance. Seventeen-year-old Farley (Noah Reid) has the stick-handling skills of the next Sidney Crosby – not that Farley has any idea who Crosby is. He’s led a sheltered life, home-schooled by parents (Olivia Newton-John and Marc Jordan) whose idea of extra-curricular activities are trips to an art gallery or an ashram.
His only real friend is Eve (Allie MacDonald), the girl who’s lived next door nearly his entire life. Much to the dismay of his parents, Farley loves to play shinny with the local rink rats (Dave Bidini and Hawksley Workman, among others). When the coach of a local hockey team (Stephen McHattie) spots him, Farley is drawn into the seductive hockey arena – while trying to stay true to his non-violent principles and juggling an ever-changing relationship with Eve.
2010. 93 min. English with French subtitles.
