Synopsis

The artist leads a procession of his infections (HIV, Parkinson's, spinal stenosis, and bedbugs) to the water in this ritual of co-existence.

Filmmaker Bio

Zachery C Longboy is a multi- disciplinary artist. Born in Churchill, Manitoba of Sayisi Dene lineage Longboy places his multiple identities as a white-fostered/native gay man at the centre of his practice. His intensely felt, hybridly layered videos often use his complex performance-installations as a departure. Longboy is nationally honoured and widely shown in festivals, galleries and public collections.
