A milestone in independent film production, Secter’s debut would go on to influence a wide range of Canadian auteurs, most notably David Cronenberg, who cites Winter Kept Us Warm as the film that inspired him to become a filmmaker.

But before long, they meet a menacing woman (Rad’s Georgie Collins) who shares the building with her knife-wielding son (The High Country’s Bill Grove) and a mysterious creature who feeds on human flesh.

Widely perceived as a misguided Star Wars fanatic hungry for attention, Raza only had a casual interest in the franchise, and the original tape was a camera test for a school project he never intended to show anyone. Shared without his consent, the video went on to saturate mainstream culture, but rather than benefit from this attention, Raza was ridiculed, hounded by the press, and bullied by his classmates, ultimately forcing him to withdraw from school and all aspects of public life.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn Star Wars Kid: The Rise of the Digital Shadows, Raza breaks his silence, revealing how this internet phenomenon became a harrowing personal ordeal – and the path he took to restore his self-esteem and find a sense of purpose as an adult. Fleshing out Raza and his experience, director Mathieu Fournier brings new depth to a story that went global without going deep and even brings Raza into contact with the blogger who turned him into a meme. It’s a potent look at high-tech harassment and disturbing new threats emerging online today.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"c-message_kit__blocks c-message_kit__blocks--rich_text\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv data-qa=\"message-text\" class=\"c-message__message_blocks c-message__message_blocks--rich_text\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv data-qa=\"block-kit-renderer\" class=\"p-block_kit_renderer\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"p-block_kit_renderer__block_wrapper p-block_kit_renderer__block_wrapper--first\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv dir=\"auto\" class=\"p-rich_text_block\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan data-sheets-root=\"1\" data-sheets-value=\"{\u0026quot;1\u0026quot;:2,\u0026quot;2\u0026quot;:\u0026quot;A rock n' road movie about a girl who learns to drive\\n\\nAt loose ends with life in Toronto, Ramona (Highway 61’s Valerie Buhagiar) is abruptly dispatched to the wilds of Northern Ontario by her mercenary record promotor boss (eXistenZ's Gerry Quigley) to retrieve The Children of Paradise, a wayward rock band that has disappeared mid-tour.

Widely perceived as a misguided Star Wars fanatic hungry for attention, Raza only had a casual interest in the franchise, and the original tape was a camera test for a school project he never intended to show anyone. Shared without his consent, the video went on to saturate mainstream culture, but rather than benefit from this attention, Raza was ridiculed, hounded by the press, and bullied by his classmates, ultimately forcing him to withdraw from school and all aspects of public life.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn Star Wars Kid: The Rise of the Digital Shadows, Raza breaks his silence, revealing how this internet phenomenon became a harrowing personal ordeal – and the path he took to restore his self-esteem and find a sense of purpose as an adult. Fleshing out Raza and his experience, director Mathieu Fournier brings new depth to a story that went global without going deep and even brings Raza into contact with the blogger who turned him into a meme. It’s a potent look at high-tech harassment and disturbing new threats emerging online today.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"c-message_kit__blocks c-message_kit__blocks--rich_text\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv data-qa=\"message-text\" class=\"c-message__message_blocks c-message__message_blocks--rich_text\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv data-qa=\"block-kit-renderer\" class=\"p-block_kit_renderer\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"p-block_kit_renderer__block_wrapper p-block_kit_renderer__block_wrapper--first\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv dir=\"auto\" class=\"p-rich_text_block\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan data-sheets-root=\"1\" data-sheets-value=\"{\u0026quot;1\u0026quot;:2,\u0026quot;2\u0026quot;:\u0026quot;A rock n' road movie about a girl who learns to drive\\n\\nAt loose ends with life in Toronto, Ramona (Highway 61’s Valerie Buhagiar) is abruptly dispatched to the wilds of Northern Ontario by her mercenary record promotor boss (eXistenZ's Gerry Quigley) to retrieve The Children of Paradise, a wayward rock band that has disappeared mid-tour.

But when they take their friendship to the next level, shocking complications threaten to derail Tom’s future, inspiring his friends to take drastic action.\\n\\nIn the wake of The Bitter Ash and the censorship battles it inspired, director Larry Kent returned with this more playful – but no less provocative – sophomore effort. An intoxicating blend of carefree sex comedy and unsparing coming-of-age drama, Sweet Substitute plays like a hedonistic reimagining of the same year’s Nobody Waved Good-bye aimed at the exploitation film market. A surprise success in the U.S. (under the title Caressed), it set the stage for Kent’s next leap forward with When Tomorrow Dies, the third and final entry in his celebrated Vancouver Trilogy.  \"}' data-sheets-root=\"1\"\u003eAdditional info:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"c-message_kit__blocks c-message_kit__blocks--rich_text\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv data-qa=\"message-text\" class=\"c-message__message_blocks c-message__message_blocks--rich_text\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv data-qa=\"block-kit-renderer\" class=\"p-block_kit_renderer\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"p-block_kit_renderer__block_wrapper p-block_kit_renderer__block_wrapper--first\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv dir=\"auto\" class=\"p-rich_text_block\"\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRegion A Blu-ray\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNew audio commentary featuring Fournier, producer Pierre-Mathieu Fortin, and subject Ghyslain Raza\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNew audio commentary featuring Patrick Cotnoir of The George Lucas Talk Show and Star Wars Insider‘s Brandon Wainerdi\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNew interview with Fournier\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGhyslain Raza Q\u0026amp;A\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExtended interview with professor Nina Duque\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStar Wars Kid trailer and teasers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDouble-sided poster\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReversible cover artwork\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEnglish SDH subtitles\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Canadian International Pictures","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45067681759432,"sku":"CIP-042 SLIP","price":54.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0598\/8486\/3688\/files\/starwarskidbdslip.webp?v=1777329428"},{"product_id":"rubber-gun-the-us-import-limited-edition-slipcover-blu-ray","title":"Rubber Gun, The (US Import Limited Edition Slipcover BLU-RAY)","description":"\u003cdiv class=\"c-message_kit__blocks c-message_kit__blocks--rich_text\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"c-message__message_blocks c-message__message_blocks--rich_text\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"p-block_kit_renderer\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ciframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/CGDZJ4zCG-s?si=qZAFIe8KQ_AxrfTa\" title=\"YouTube video player\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe kids your mother never let you play with.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCharismatic painter Steve (\u003cem\u003eScanners\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003estar Stephen Lack) has carved out a reputation as Montréal’s premiere drug connection, trafficking narcotics with a crew of friends and lovers living as a makeshift “family” on the fringes of society.
