In 2009, Montreal-based filmmaker and photographer Andi State had just finished producing her first feature film, an endeavour that she says left her broke and disillusioned by the business of cinema.
Wanting to get back to basics, Slate wondered if she could make a film by herself, with only a trusted camera by her side. âI bought a camcorder and a bunch of tapes and started shooting a film on my office-mates, POP Montreal, preparing for that year s festival,â said State in a recent POP Montreal release.
Launched by friends and colleagues in 2002 from the collective impulse to create a meaningful and vibrant cultural festival, POP Montreal International Music Festival is an annual not-for-proï¬t curated cultural event that champions independence in the arts by presenting emerging and celebrated artistic talents from around the world. POP Montreal is now entering its 20th year as a permanent ï¬xture on the Montreal festival map and the international music circuit.
