Calendar
Egoyan’s Calendar is a slowly unfolding story about diasporic fracture. A photographer (Egoyan himself) and his wife, both second-generation Armenian-Canadians, travel to Armenia to take pictures for a commercial calendar. While his wife becomes increasingly immersed in the culture, landscape and people of their shared homeland, the photographer hides himself ever-further behind his viewfinder. Egoyan’s deeply personal film traces the growing alienation between the couple, while the landscapes and historical sites of Armenia bloom before the lens.
