189: Wintopia (2020) with Mira Burt-Wintonick

We’re kicking off our Hot Docs at Home coverage with a film about a Canadian documentary icon - Peter Wintonick. Today, we’re speaking to Mira Burt-Wintonic about her deeply moving “Wintopia”.

Tasked with finishing her celebrated father’s film about Utopia after his passing, Mira sorts through around 300 dusty video cassettes her father shot on his years of global travel as he searched for “Utopia”. What she assembles may not be what her father intended, but it’s something, heartfelt, personal, and deeply relatable.

Wintopia is part of the Hot Docs at Home Festival 2020! Enjoy with those you love by visiting the link right here:
