SYNOPSIS

A short art film, THE KNITS follows the arduous task of knitting a sweater, while at the same time watching this same sweater unravel as it makes its way across Canada. The film tugs at the crossed threads of familial ties, art versus craft, gendered materiality and our relationship with nature.
