- LOGLINE: A raucous documentary about the not so silent women of the silent film era. SYNOPSIS: A unique hybrid of documentary, silent film, drama and dance, 'Breaking Plates' puts revolutionary women of the past on the screen with present day filmmakers. Contemporary women talk to characters from 100 years ago, reanimate their antics and emulate their mayhem moves. As early 21st century performers step into the clothes of their early 20th century counterparts, battling their haywire machines, exploding gags, and eruptive bodies, they learn to wield humour as a weapon against the structures that contain them today. 'Breaking Plates' is a boundary-smashing brawl and a creative revolution for women onscreen, a riotously entertaining enactment of the principle that if we want to tell different stories, we have to tell stories differently.
- In 'Impossible Image', the past and the present come together to challenge gender performance and shake down the patriarchy.
- Long-nosed Cyrano de Bergerac helps an army officer woo Roxanne, the woman he loves.
