Christian Zyp interviews Dylan Glynn (writer/designer/director) about the animated short KNOWING GAZE. It will screen at the Edmonton International Film Festival as part of their Short Stop 7.0 program. See it on Saturday October 3rd, 2026 at 12:00pm at Landmark CInemas 9 City Centre. Knowing Gaze is a loving roast of gay culture. This animated short moves fluidly through a series of interconnected vignettes—from online personas to offline hookups, from the thrift store to the dance floor to the bathhouse. Rendered in expressive brush strokes, the story unfolds as candid conversations carried by acidic dialogue and vulnerable interior monologues. At its core, the film probes the tenderness and tension of modern gay identity. Beneath a million witty one-liners, the soul cries out. TIX: https://edmontonfilmfest.com/films/NFB WEBSITE: https://mediaspace.nfb.ca/epk/knowing-gaze/DLYAN GLYNN WEBSITE: https://www.dylanglynn.com/INSTAGRAM: @dylanglynn.mov

Christian Zyp interviews Vincent Brulotte (Production Coordinator & Programmer) from the Edmonton International Film Festival discuss the 4th and final edition of the EIFF ROAD TO 40 screenings. This time it's the EIFF's Road to 40: Parasite on Thursday, August 27, 2026 7:00 PM MDT at Landmark Cinemas 9 City Centre. PARASITE (2019) which was directed by Bong Joon Ho, revolves around a poor family of parents, son, and daughter, who struggle to survive in a society with the least luxuries. They were managing their lives, obviously criticizing the wealthy, until one day Choi-woo-sik, the son of the family received an opportunity to tutor a wealthy girl, through a friend's invitation.  This is when the whole comedy turns into a tragedy, for the time being, because of the human desire for luxury and the prevailing avarice for pampered commodities.The film is a critical portrayal of contemporary society, where the wealthy get the best while the poor suffer to the fullest. The way the poor family slowly fuses into the wealthy, pretending like they don't know each other illustrates how crooked people can go to achieve their needs and desires. But at the same time, I sort of felt like, “why are the wealthy family members showing this much ignorance and trusting someone who is totally new to them?” EIFF WEBSITE & TIX INFO: https://eiffroadto40.eventive.org/schedule/eiff-s-road-to-40-parasite-69f4da137bdc1c081401cbd7

Things are continuing to flourish in Queenstown. The mid-scale ‘Holiday Inn Express & Suites', which boasts 277 rooms in the City Centre, is being refurbished to become ‘voco Queenstown' – part of IHG's premium portfolio. The move targets high-end tourism, with the hotel running at around 90% occupancy for nine months of the year. Hotel Council Aotearoa Strategic Director James Doolan told Mike Hosking that it's normal to think about renovating and repositioning every seven to ten years, but upgrading to the next level is an encouraging sign. He says central government's increased investment in event attraction and destination marketing has allowed private businesses to invest in their assets.
