Winnipeg documentary filmmaker and photographer John Paskievich has produced a body of work that Maclean’s magazine has described as “poignant, funny, angry by turns, it brims with rare compassion”. His films have focused on a diverse range of humanity that includes Inuit stonecarvers in Baffin Island, a Ukrainian Canadian corner grocer and his daughter in Winnipeg, Roma in Slovakia and persons who cope with the challenges of stuttering. An accomplished still photographer, Paskievich’s work has been exhibited widely and published in several books including The North End and it’s sequel, The North End Revisited.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/12″][vc_single_image image=”1246″ img_size=”250×250″ el_class=”film-production-img”][/vc_column][vc_column width=”4/12″][vc_column_text]EDITOR
