Vancouver filmmaker Karen Lam has two features under her belt, Stained and Evangeline, both are psychological thrillers of the type not commonly associated with women directors (a third is currently in post production). So it should come as no surprise that Lams' choice in our Her Stories series spotlights Kathryn Bigelow's breakthrough vampire movie, Near Dark, a cult favourite since it saw the light of day back in 1987. Karen will introduce the screening and talk about it afterwards. 35mm print.
