I’m thrilled to be presenting my latest film, This Is Not a Movie, with our collaboration with Mubi. This Is Not a Movie is the first feature documentary that I’ve made since my collaborations with Montreal’s EyeSteelFilm. How do you tell a story that spans 40 years of journalism? By assembling a team of creators from producers Anita Lee (Nfb), Allyson Luchak, Nelofer Pazira, and Ingmar Trost to cinematographer Duraid Munajim to editor Mike Munn to my composers Ohad Benchetrit and Justin Small.When I first started researching the film, I imagined that Robert Fisk would be a very somber, brooding, morose character.

Toronto -- With downtown Toronto expected to be a ghost town this coming weekend during the G20 summit of world leaders, Canadian distributor E1 Entertainment has postponed the local release of Nelofer Pazira's "Act of Dishonor" from June 25 to July 9.
That's the least of inconveniences expected in Toronto as an estimated 12,000 police officers and steel fencing to safeguard U.S. President Barack Obama and other world leaders turn the city into Cold War-era Berlin.
The north-west corner of the Canadian Broadcasting Corp.'s Toronto broadcast center will serve as a command post for the Rcmp and other security personnel.
And a former film studio on Eastern Avenue has been turned into a temporary jail to process G20 protesters that get arrested during the summit.
Elsewhere, live theatre producer Mirvish Productions has chosen to take a $2 million hit as it closes local productions of "Rock of Ages" and "Mamma Mia!
