Madame Tutli-Putli
Madame Tutli-Putli , Chris Lavis & Maciek Szczerbowski, provided by the National Film Board of Canada

Kali the Little Vampire
Kali the Little Vampire, Regina Pessoa, provided by the National Film Board of Canada
Oscar®-winner Christopher Plummer narrates Regina Pessoa‘s haunting and tragic film that tells the story of Kali, a young and desperately lonely vampire who envies the children he can see from his sun-proof lair. When danger arises, Kali is given the opportunity to make himself know, but will he find acceptance among the other children?
Bydlo
Bydlo, Patrick Bouchard, provided by the National Film Board of Canada
Watch a nightmarish allegory about the chaos, terror and eventual disaster of mankind being its own slave driver in Patrick Bouchard‘s expertly animated and utterly haunting film. The animation was inspired by Modest Mussorgsky’s Pictures at an Exhibition, a composition as equally evocative as the film.
The Burning Times
The Burning Times, Donna Read, provided by the National Film Board of Canada
You don’t need a bubbling cauldron to glimpse into the ghastly and horrific witch hunts that swept across Europe between the 15th and 17th century. Donna Read‘s doc examines the mass hysteria that culminated in the torture—and eventual burning at the stake—of thousands of young women who were accused of witchcraft.
The Brainwashers
The Brainwashers, Patrick Bouchard, provided by the National Film Board of Canada
Patrick Bouchard‘s second addition to this list tells the chilling story of two chimney sweepers who are tasked with destroying all the memories from their victim’s brain, all to figure out what goes on inside a person’s head. Visually unnerving and petrifying, this film will make you second guess that little itch in the back of your brain.
