Pnina Granirer: Portrait of an Artist explores the development of an art career spanning five decades. It follows Granirer's life in art, from Romania during the war, to Israel, the U.S., and finally Canada. The film reveals the breadth of her work, from figurative works to powerful interpretations of the BC landscape, to collaboration with dancers who become part of unusual life-size drawings on clear mylar. This film is a testimony to an artist's passionate and personal experience, sparkling experimentation, and daring association of form and ideas.
