my films
I have pursued my love of documentary storytelling for over 30 years, working at Global Television, the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation, and as an independent filmmaker.
documentary
They may be convenient, but billions of plastic bags are used –and discarded- every year, creating a disaster for the environment. The film takes stock of the icon of convenience culture.
The powerful influence of the biology of the brain on criminal behavior. How will discoveries in neuroscience change how our justice system treats criminal behavior?
The Birds do it. The bees do it. It seems we all do it. But we like to think we are different from other animals. So are we?
A Revealing Look at the Secret Life Of Trees – how they communicate, wage war, and work together to transform our world.
They are the fastest growing population in Canada and half live in cities. Meet your indigenous neighbours as they challenge stereotypes and change the troubled relationship they have with Canadians.
This film explores an illness that has devastating effects, is often misdiagnosed and mistreated, and continues to be medically controversial.
The story of a few powerful leaders – Adolf Hitler, Benito Mussolini, Joseph Stalin – who persuaded tens of millions of followers, and how they used propaganda to do it. The episode examines the role of mass persuasion in the 1930’s as the world moves towards world war.
This film pulls back the curtain to reveal the complex choreography of distribution that keeps New Yorkers fed. From the most expensive restaurants, to soup kitchens, it’s a dance of supply and demand that happens in cities all over the world, every day.
This film examines how forensic evidence – which is considered almost infallible in solving crimes – can be quite faulty, and lead to wrongful convictions.

Most Manitobans are aware of stubble burning – the controversial practice where farmers burn the stubble off their fields in the fall after harvest. Now in spring, many farmers are taking up a new practice: snow burning.
This music video is set to Drek Daa’s song, Love Love Love, and sung by his many friends, as a surprise gift to Drek.
