VVII
A Black eyed Beauty's Street people Story

Some you win.

The Vancouver 2010 Winter Olympics was a Canadian smash, a world record for Olympic Gold, a wild party in the streets that bespoke new lofty heights for the northerners against their muscled North American neighbor, the USA.

Some 'ya lose.

Not since 1994 did the Vancouver Canucks make it to the Stanley Cup finals. Again they did battle to the 7th and final game with their southern neighbors, the street party culminating in a smash of a different sort.

The rage, the sadness, the ongoing humiliation of a city terribly overpriced, homelessness the primary issue of Vancouver's last two elections straddling the Olympics. We take a quirky ride through a zany caricatured back-story of the city's recent governments, revealing their fate in carrying the big world event beyond the 2008 crash.

Olympics, pro hockey, wacky politics, rich music & shocking spectacle- this is VVII.

Heath Tait's autobiographical 1st feature Vancouver Vagabond won considerable acclaim with its cinematic diversity and sumptuous real-life story grit.

VVII, though shot entirely on video, boasts a volume and emotion typically the domain of cinema via its sprawling musical adaptations and tense subjects.

Both are to be released soon along with a huge range of franchise video projects, the 3rd feature scheduled for 2013 leading into the 2014 Winter Olympics.
