Don't stay at home, but .... run to North America's first retrospective devoted to German writer-director Angela Schanelec (couldn't resist the insider pun). Berlin arthouse star Angela Schanelec is coming to Toronto, introducing and talking about her films and for a
carte blanche screening, where the filmmaker introduces her contribution to this retrospective: Ermanno Olmi’s 1978 Cannes winner "The Tree of Wooden Clogs".

“For me it is something special, not to be alone. I’m interested in what people do in order not to be alone, what burdens they carry.” -- Angela Schanelec
