This animated short employs hand-drawn animation layered over stop-motion sequences of moving ink on drumskins to create a striking, mournful portrait of the Alberta tar sands. This film was made as part of the 7th edition of the NFB's Hothouse apprenticeship.
Black Gold was directed by Aimée van Drimmelen.
Black Gold runs for 1min, and was released in 2011.
