Woodwriter: The Wordless Art of George A. Walker (1)
Wood engraver, artist, printer and time traveler, George A. Walker has created a distinct world of books, imagery and ideas. Woodwriter follows the journey from a blank maple wood block to a sculptural hand-made book, exploring the lives of Canadian icons including Mary Pickford, Leonard Cohen and Conrad Black. About art and its makers, this film is peppered with Canadian culture and shows that the past and present never stop talking to each other, even if it’s without words.

Good start, but then it gets ruined
This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.
The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.
