For each day of the Festival, the Art @ MIFF profile has highlighted the work of one of the artists included in our new Cutting the Edge category. This exciting observation of audio-visual experimentation involves multi-disciplinary works of art, which incorporate at least two forms of artistic expression. We’d like to thank the artists and filmmakers who were part of this first edition category. We’d also like to thank Bonnie Clearwater, Hadley Henriette and Christine Taplin for their work as part of the Cutting the Edge competition jury. Congratulations to the category winner On War
(De La Guerre) by Bertrand Bonello, France; and winner of a special jury mention Beket by Davide Manuli, Italy.
