Watch False Saints

Alberta artist Malcolm Sutherland’s first film, Robot City (2002), produced independently at the Quickdraw Animation Society in Calgary, has played at several festivals, including the Ottawa International Animation Festival. His first professional animated film, False Saints, was produced at the National Film Board in 2003. Originally a student of astrophysics, Malcolm went on to study classical printmaking at the Alberta College of Art and Design. There he received numerous awards and scholarships, including an artist residency award which allowed him to live, work, and study at Arcosanti; an experimental pedestrian city. His drawings, prints, and films have been shown in galleries and at festivals all across North America.
