A short film by Michael Gibisser, assistant professor in the University of Iowa Department of Cinematic Arts, will have its world premiere Sept. 6 at the Toronto International Film Festival.

Shot using a custom-built 35mm camera, Gibisser’s Slow Volumes will screen as part of TIFF’s Wavelengths program. According to the festival program, Slow Volumes “pushes familiar spaces into abstraction in a Michael Snow-esque experiment that bends cinematic space and time.”

Gibisser will participate in a Q&A with other filmmakers in the program after the screening.
