Finn Slough

About This Movie

Finn Slough captures a moment in time with its four-channel video format, immersing you in the atmosphere of British Columbia’s Fraser River during the summer of '95. The visuals are raw, unpolished, almost documentary-like, evoking a sense of nostalgia and intimacy. It has this understated pacing that allows the viewer to really soak in the surroundings and the subtle sounds of nature. There’s something meditative about it, as if it’s inviting you to reflect on the passage of time and the simplicity of life along the river. The lack of a known director adds to its allure, making it feel like a hidden gem from an era that many collectors are drawn to.

Finn Slough exists in a niche space within video art, making it a curious find for collectors. With its limited distribution and obscure origins, the film has become somewhat of a rarity, often discussed in collector circles. Its unique format adds to its appeal, as multi-channel video installations are less common in traditional film collections. Keep an eye out for exhibition prints or any archival releases, as those can be quite scarce.
