Oakville Galleries is thrilled to present the return of Sunset Kino, Canada’s only outdoor avant-garde film festival, set against the stunning backdrop of Gairloch Gardens every Thursday from June 26 to July 17. Each screening begins at sunset and is introduced by the program’s curators, offering audiences a thoughtfully curated selection of films and videos by both Canadian and international artists.
Each year, the program is shaped by an overarching theme and thoughtfully aligned with our summer exhibition. This year’s theme, “What was that,” responds to ongoing geopolitical shifts and the narratives they produce, whether unfolding across borders or within our local contexts. It invites us to reflect on the constant need to recalibrate our understanding of the world, and to reconsider our roles both as individuals and as a collective—as a new global order begins to take form.
