URBAN CAUSTIC - 16mm colour film, 7.5min - Juliana Saragosa 2002
film synopsis

Toronto, love it or hate it; the overwhelming chaos of the city, the noise and the smog, an experimental response to living in Toronto. Shot in 3 different mediums - mini DV, 16mm and super 8 - hand processing attempts to subvert the reign of video and "take back film" by shooting video onto film.
