biography

Driven by curiosity for new knowledge, Matthew Wolkow creates a cinema that reveals the people he meets and the stories that emerge from them. Situated between essay and experimentation, rubbing shoulders with reality, imagination, words, music and sensorialities, his work benefits from this hybridity where form is approached as a resolution. On two occasions (in 2018 and 2024), he won the prize for the best work of art and experimentation at the Rendez-Vous Québec Cinéma. In October 2021, the Cinémathèque québécoise is dedicating a first retrospective to him.
