Director Mira Burt-Wintonick discusses her new film Wintopia about her late filmmaker father Peter Wintonick, dubbed "Canada's documentary ambassador." This issue also features first looks at films debuting on the 2020 festival circuit amid COVID-19, including Ariel Nasr's The Forbidden Reel, which restores Afghan film history, and Sam Soko's Softie about the "Kenyan Bernie Sanders." Additional questions about film and festival life appear in an essay on True/False 2020, which was one of the final festivals to run in full before the pandemic brought the industry to a halt. Other highlights in the issue include a spotlight on Indigenous photography, a guide to the essential films by Agnès Varda, and a look at the growing trend of films based on a true story as the popularity for documentary evolves.
