Film Production
Susan Heimsoth has always been interested in making film. In 2007, she was the recipient of the Don S. Williams Award for artists in North Vancouver. The purpose of this grant was to make Susan’s first film, BCC (Blind Carbon Copy). This film was part of a larger film concept.
MadWorld
A Powerful Demonstration of Art and Collaboration our recent film (2020), Mad World, was created to express some of the issues around Covid 19 pandemic. There is a disconnect between Covid protocols (wearing masks and physical distancing) versus nature: connection with the world and each other. To us, it is a Mad World that we are living in.
SacredCurrents
Susan went on to create her second film, Sacred Currents in 2008.This film looks at some of the ways in which people pray or connect to a higher power. The soundtrack includes First Nations song and drumming, along with a gospel song entitled: Down in the River to Pray. It is a short film that reflects on how we all pray in our own way, and how people often seek a connection to God in whatever form He is perceived to be.

BlindCarbon Copy
This film is seen through the eyes of a young woman who reflects on her life purpose. In the film, she dreams about several facets of her life by going through doors in her mind. Each door leads her to a different aspect of her life. In the film BCC: the lead character arrives at work. She floats in on the office door, meets her co-workers on the sand, gets tangled up in work stress, and is then taken back out to sea on the same door. The theme is nature versus the workplace, the meaning of life and the meaningless work that we sometimes do to survive.
