Perspective is a 9-chapter episodic drama film from Canada written and directed by B. P. Paquette and starring Stéphane Paquette, Patricia Tedford, and Pandora Topp in a love triangle.[1][1][2][3][4] The first four of the nine chapters, titled, respectively, Chapter 1: Salt & Soda (2012), Chapter 2: Chris and Other Beards (2013), Chapter 3: Hush, hsuH (2014), and Chapter 4: Reflecting (2015), have been completed as of 2015.[5]

Production

Subtitled Variations on a Love Triangle in 9 Chapters, and somewhat inspired by the renowned documentary Up Series, Perspective is unique in that it is a feature-length fiction film in progress, and will continue to evolve until 2020. Every year a new chapter of the film will be presented exclusively at Cinéfest until the project is complete. Each chapter will run approximately 10 to 20 minutes, with the completed film expected to be approximately 90-120 minutes. The time lapse between chapters will be integrated into the drama.[1][1][2][3]

At the premiere of each additional chapter, the preceding chapter(s) are replayed. To date, the first four chapters, titled, respectively, Chapter 1: Salt & Soda (2012), Chapter 2: Chris and Other Beards (2013), Chapter 3: Hush, hsuH (2014), and Chapter 4: Reflecting (2015), have been completed and presented, [4] and the duration of the film thus far is 70+ minutes.

The film features music and sound design (the onscreen credit states "soundscapes") by Daniel Bédard, production design by Joseph Kabbach, and cinematography by Ivan Gekoff.

An accomplished educator, filmmaker B. P. Paquette is using Perspective as a teaching tool for his film production students in the Motion Picture Arts program at Thorneloe University (federated with Laurentian University). In this context, Perspective offers students a unique opportunity to work on, and observe first hand, a professional production.[1][1][2][3]

Festival recognition

The first four of the nine chapters that compose Perspective have each premiered at Cinefest in, respectively, 2012, 2013, 2014, and 2015.[1][1][2][3] [4][6]

Theatrical release

Perspective will be released commercially in theatres across Canada when it is completed in 2020.
