Bead Game: Ishu Patel



A quick post to start off the week, with a rediscovered short from NFB legend Ishu Patel. Found this on YouTube whilst I was looking for "Divine Fate", my fave film of his and winner of the Grand Prize in Ottawa in '94. If you've not seen "Fate", it's available on a VHS collection from the NFB. I'd really like to see a fully comprehensive DVD collection of the NFB's great directors, along the lines of the Norman McLaren collection. For now, enjoy "Bead Game", a classic NFB short from (believe or no) 1977. More NFB goodness later.
