Deco Dawson | Canada | 2001 | 23' |

| IFFR 2002

FILM(dzama) rekindles the lost form of surrealist cinema made popular in the 1920s by Dali/Buñuel and Man Ray. Motivated by the sheer magic, humour and disobedience of visual artist Marcel Dzama’s work, deco dawson has created an original, entirely fictional biography of the artist.
