Anyox (2022)

(87 min; documentary; 35mm/65mm; 5.1)
Directed by Jessica Johnson, Ryan Ermacora 

A former mining town in remote northwest British Columbia, Anyox is now home to mountainous slag piles accumulated as a byproduct of the early 20th century copper smelting process. Anyox depicts the lives of the town’s two sole remaining residents while simultaneously unfolding a complex labour history and a story of immense environmental degradation.
