Curious about the brave new world of interactive documentaries?  Experimental filmmaker Morgan Rhys Tams’ “elevated cinema” goes where few have gone before.  

From a community-based animation with 120 collaborators, to an animated site-specific installation of strategically placed QR codes on aluminum plates, Morgan’s oeuvre stretches the limits of what a documentary can be. 

Morgan has created everything from a music video-style rock & roll “western” opera to site specific and interactive installations and community-based interventions—often in some of the world’s most challenging locations.  

He has received grants from the Canada Council, BC Arts Council and National Film Board and taught in partnership with The National Film Board, the City of Victoria, the Vancouver Olympic Organizing Committee, and prestigious Hot Docs Film Festival.

Ruthie's Table 4

Ruthie's Table 4

For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
