RYAN STEWART: The Tracey Fragments Director Bruce McDonald

The phrase "love it or hate it" was made for The Tracey Fragments, a boldly experimental new film that uses an aggressive split-screen technique to dramatize the chaotic, fragmented state of mind of its lead character -- a 15-year-old runaway named Tracey Berkowitz, played by a pre-Juno Ellen Page. As Tracey wanders through a foreboding landscape wrapped in a blanket, ostensibly searching for her lost little brother, screens of all shapes and sizes open up seemingly at random, like thought-bubbles...

Great interview. Sounds like a fascinating film.

i'm curious as to this brother she's lost who thinks he's a dog...

I actully got to sit with Bruce when he showed the film here back in november. I spent like 3 hours sitting in the small cafe owned by the theatre talking to him before the movie it was amazing.
