Roberto ARIGANELLO,
Filmmaker (1961-2006)
He ran the Liaison of Independent Filmmakers of Toronto and its
annual festival of movies rejected by Toronto International Film
Festival
By Noreen SHANAHAN,
Special to The Globe and Mail, Page S11
Toronto -- Roberto
ARIGANELLO was at once a filmmaker and the
heart and soul of a tiny, obscure co-operative dedicated to producing
short, contemporary art films for an equally small and arcane
audience.
An artist in his own right who laboured at deeply personal projects,
he was devoted to his role as the executive director of the Liaison
of Independent Films of Toronto, a group that celebrates movies
rejected by the Toronto International Film Festival.
Called the National Salon des Refusés, the alternative film festival
was inspired by an exhibition of paintings rejected by the censorious
French Académie des Beaux Arts in Paris in 1863. At the time,
the Academie decided which artists received public exhibitions.
Any work that strayed from realism, which reflected "good art"
at the time, was rejected. In 1863, the Academie was especially
judgmental and rejected 2,800 canvases. In response, the emperor,
Louis Napoleon, demanded that the Academie display the rejected
works in a separate exhibition called the Salon des Refusés.
Liaison of Independent Filmmakers of Toronto's version of the
Salon des Refusés is a non-curated selection of Canadian films
that run no more than 20 minutes and were rejected by Toronto
International Film Festival. The films are chosen in a lottery
and selected filmmakers are reimbursed their Toronto International
Film
Festival entry fee. Every September, Mr.
ARIGANELLO organized
the Salon des Refusés from start to finish in support of independent
filmmakers.
His friend and colleague, Deirdre
LOGUE, said his influence and
impact on the national film Community was immeasurable. It was
not unusual for him to deliver film equipment to various artistic
communities across Canada. In a recent edition of Liaison of
Independent Filmmakers of Toronto's magazine, Film Print, he
described a trip he made to a Moose Cree First Nations community
in Northern Ontario in March. "Our goal is to create a media
arts centre in the North," he wrote. "So I drove a minivan filled
with a 16 mm Steenbeck, sound bench, 16 mm projector and workshop
supplies… across the frozen Moose river to Moose Factory."
In addition, Mr.
ARIGANELLO also headed up the Canadian Filmmakers
Distribution Centre and was president of the film and video exhibition
collective Pleasure Dome from 2000-2004. He was also a member
of the advisory board of the film and television program at Humber
College in Toronto and served on the executive board of the Cultural
Careers Council of Ontario.
Roberto ARIGANELLO was the
son of Nicolina and Giuseppe
ARIGANELLO,
an Italian couple who arrived in Canada in 1951. The youngest
of seven children, he sometimes went missing from the family's
apartment in Toronto's west end. As it happened, his mother would
invariably look out the window to see him toting heavy bags of
groceries up the hill for the old women and men who lived in
their building. As a boy, he also came to know personal loss.
His sister Connie died when he was five and his parents died
within a year of each other while he was in his teens.
Mr. ARIGANELLO graduated from Ryerson University's media studies
program in Toronto in 1994 and began exhibiting his work in 1995.
His work usually combined a number of different image sources
and drew on influences ranging from cinema-verité and surrealism
to the agit-prop films of the Cuban Santiago Alvarez. Loteria
(1997), a documentary about the Mexican national lottery and
the street vendors who sell the tickets, co-directed with Federico
Hidalgo, combined 16 mm colour footage with black and white material
shot on super-8 film and then optically printed to 16 mm. Contrafacta
(2000), co-directed with Chris Gehman, was a labyrinthine animated
film made using paper cutouts from medieval artworks.
Mr. ARIGANELLO's film Shelter (2001) is a multi-layered experimental
film That weaves archival social commentary and recent political
activism in a playful analysis of our culture's misplaced priorities.
The film blends archival footage of circuses, westerns and Pierre
Berton discussing the pros and cons of building a bomb shelter
with a variety of such appropriated material as a homeless demonstration
during the premiere of an Atom Egoyan film.
Mr. ARIGANELLO was critical of what he described as the film
industry's current obsession with new digital technology. "Roberto
was the spark that began my love of Super 8," said filmmaker
Siue MOFFAT. "I had only worked with 16 mm before going into
Liaison of Independent Filmmakers of Toronto one day and tentatively
inquiring with him."
On the other hand, he was aware of the opportunities that cropped
up. It was his belief that the death of film was really the chance
of a lifetime.
"Every discarded piece of film equipment was worth salvaging,
either for Liaison of Independent Filmmakers of Toronto or any
other interested co-op, because it expanded our opportunities
to make work," said long-time friend and colleague Chris
KENNEDY.
"He provided opportunities to use up the last rolls of regular
8 mm at the same time as he encouraged us to finish in 35 mm."
Mr. ARIGANELLO's last film, which is still in production, tells
the story of his grandfather who emigrated to Argentina from
Italy in the 1920s. Mr.
ARIGANELLO, who twice went to Argentina
to gather material, envisioned it as an experimental documentary
recounting historical events that significantly contributed to
his own sense of self and nationality. His dream was to see it
premiered at Toronto International Film Festival or even as his
own Salon des Refusé.
Roberto ARIGANELLO was born in Thunder Bay, Ontario on July 20,
1961. He died of drowning on August 13, 2006. He was swimming
at Tea Lake, near Halifax. He had gone to Nova Scotia to drop
off donated film equipment to the Atlantic Filmmakers Co-operative.
He is survived his sisters Maria, Ness, Terry, and JoAnne, and
by his brother Tony.

Trying to reconcile a man's life and death
Friends are wondering how a college student from a good family
ended up shot dead by police, writes Anthony
REINHART
By Anthony
REINHART,
Page
A11
Toronto -- Until a couple of weeks ago, anyone who knew the real
Shelton McKENZIE would have expected to find him out clubbing
last night, toasting his 21st birthday on some Toronto dance
floor in smooth urban attire and a fresh pair of Jordans.
Instead, his Friends dressed for a visitation yesterday at a
funeral home in his hometown of Ajax, east of Toronto, to file
past Mr. McKENZIE's coffin and wonder whether they really knew
him at all.
Specifically, they've been wondering how Mr.
McKENZIE -- who
came from a middle-class suburban family, who worked as a produce
clerk through high school, who had young women lining up for
his ever-respectful attention, and who took police courses in
college just last fall -- wound up shot dead by police this month.
It happened just before dawn on Thursday, April 13, near an upscale
home in the Thornhill community north of Toronto, where the
THOMPSON/THOMSON/TOMPSON/TOMSON
family had just endured a home invasion robbery.
York
Regional
Police arrived as Mr.
McKENZIE and another person
fled in the
THOMPSONs' pickup truck. Officers opened fire on
the truck, killing Mr.
McKENZIE.
The second man ran off and holed
up in another home and was arrested within hours.
Ontario's Special Investigations Unit, which probes deaths and
injuries related to police, is still examining the killing of
Mr. McKENZIE.
But York police have linked the two men to five home invasions
in and around Toronto since late February, including the gunpoint
robbery of Sherry
COOPER, chief economist at
BMO
Nesbitt
Burns,
and her husband, Peter.
As she squinted through the murk of predawn to find two masked
men standing in her bedroom, Ms.
COOPER felt surprised, bewildered
and terrified on the morning of March 13.
Police say Mr.
McKENZIE was one of the two mud-splattered men
standing before her and her husband. The pair had broken into
the COOPERs' ravine-side home in Hogg's Hollow, an exclusive
enclave in North Toronto.
They bound the couple with duct tape, ransacked the house and
fled with cash, jewellery, computers and BlackBerrys.
Their masks, and the shock that gripped the
COOPERs, made them
all but impossible to identify.
"We refer to the 'old guy' and the 'young guy' when we speak
to each other, or the 'big guy,' Ms.
COOPER told The Globe
and Mail, "and we're not even sure we're referring to the same
people."
Ms. COOPER, 55, was also caught without her glasses or contact
lenses. "I'm not blind without my glasses, but it was pleasingly
fuzzy, believe me. I didn't particularly want to be 100-per-cent
conscious."
She was conscious enough, however, to talk her way to some relief
after one of the men, armed with a gun, pinned her to the bed.
"He said he wanted jewellery and I said, 'Let me show you… where
it is,' Ms.
COOPER said. "So, fortunately, that got us to stand
up and walk in there" to where her valuables were stored.
The couple were led downstairs and taped to a pillar. One man
stood guard, pointing a gun at them, the other combed the house,
selecting items to fill his backpack and tossing others to the
floor.
Asked whether either man seemed like a novice, or a junior partner,
Ms. COOPER had this to say about the one who stood guard: "Until
the very end I would have thought that he was more nervous, and
that he wasn't as aggressive, he wasn't a leader," she said.
"However, at the end, I managed to get myself out of the tape,
and it was that stand-guard guy that saw me. And then he grabbed
me and, you know, pulled me up the steps and told me, now he's
going to have to hurt me, now he's going to have to shoot me,
and he threw me down on the floor and said he was going to have
to shoot me.
"And it was the other one who said, 'Take her back downstairs.'
So they just retaped us."
"There wasn't, like, a good cop and a bad cop; there wasn't a
leader and a follower," she said. "They were brutal. They clearly
hated us, just [because of] what we had."
But for the people who knew or encountered Shelton
McKENZIE,
nothing is very clear. No one -- from coaches and former co-workers
to Friends and the police themselves -- has been able to reconcile
the way he lived with the way he died.
"I really don't know how or why he became involved," Detective
Sergeant Fred
MOFFATT of York's holdup squad said, adding that
police have seen more young people from trouble-free backgrounds
jumping "right into doing robberies."
Sometimes the goal is to win acceptance from a gang. Others are
dragged in by underworld creditors, such as drug dealers.
"I don't know if that's the case here, so I would never say that,"
Det. Sgt. MOFFATT said. "We're still investigating and still
trying to figure out exactly where he comes from. But yeah, it's
a mystery."
Mr. McKENZIE's parents, who have requested privacy from reporters,
are "just blown away" by what happened, said Lance
BROWN, their
pastor at Refuge City Pentecostal Church in Ajax. "I knew Shelton.
He was a great kid," Mr.
BROWN said.
At the No Frills on Kingston Road in Pickering, Tony
CORNACCHIA
recalled how Mr.
McKENZIE "always asked for as many hours as
I could give him" in the produce department, where he was the
most experienced part-timer, until he left the job a year ago.
"I left him in charge quite a few times, on evenings and weekends."
Mr. CORNACCHIA remembered driving the young man home to his parents'
relatively new house in west Ajax, where he lived with an older
brother, a younger brother and a sister. He described the family
as hard-working and strict, particularly the mother, who insisted
that her son help pay his own way.
"It seemed like they were a very disciplined family," he said,
and when he heard the news of Mr.
McKENZIE's death, "I was surprised
just like everyone else."
Ms. COOPER had trouble squaring the wholesome image of Mr.
McKENZIE
with the man who caused her to feel such terror that morning,
a terror that she said has changed her life forever.
"It is inconceivable to me that some normal, 20-year-old, good
kid finds himself just accidentally in this kind of situation,"
she said. "I have a son who's not much older than that and, honestly,
I just can't even fathom how you get yourself in that situation
unless you've been… involved with some real bad people for a
while."
If that's the case, Shelton
McKENZIE kept his secret life well
hidden.
At J. Clarke Richardson Collegiate, where he graduated in 2004,
basketball coaches Steve
DAWSON and Mike
McFETTERS stood in the
gym last week, puzzled.
"Whatever happened, we didn't see it coming," said Mr.
DAWSON,
a middle-aged man who traded easy, good-natured jibes with the
popular all-star nicknamed Springz for his jumping prowess.
Mr. McFETTERS said his star rebounder avoided situations that
looked like trouble and could take a beating on the court without
losing his cool.
"He wasn't a violent kid," he said, but acknowledged he'd seen
Mr. McKENZIE just three times, for a total of about 20 minutes,
in the two years since he left Richardson. The last time was
just before Christmas, when the young man dropped by the school
after his first semester in the police foundations program at
Durham College in Oshawa.
Mr. McFETTERS said Mr.
McKENZIE was conflicted over whether to
continue his studies, citing the cost and the commute as challenges.
"If he wasn't sure what he wanted to do, he didn't want to go
[back to college] until he could figure things out," the coach
said.
With that, he asked Mr.
McFETTERS about his wife and daughter,
and congratulated him on the impending birth of a second child.
With his death, "there's just questions that I don't know if
we're ever going to get the answers to now," the coach said.
Similar questions are circulating among Mr.
McKENZIE's
Friends,
236 of whom are linked to his profile on hi5.com, a Web gathering
place. Since his death, many have posted photos and comments,
written in the vernacular of on-line chat.
"i cant begin 2 understand y USA did wat USA did," wrote one. 'it
wasnt ur thing… it wasnt like u. buh im not tryna hold nothing
on u. Ire gota 4give u… even tho now ur gone 4ever."
Several young women claimed Mr.
McKENZIE as their dream man,
and gave accounts of long telephone conversations, nights out
dancing, tender moments and hopes for a future together.
In an interview this week, Jennifer
VIEIRA, 19, said Mr.
McKENZIE's
attractiveness was no mystery when she met him after the 2004
Caribana parade in downtown Toronto. He was not only well-dressed,
but also a gentleman.
"He said, 'I'll call you in a couple of hours,' and he actually
called me back later," she said. "He was coming off real. He
wasn't being fake at all."
What was real and what was fake is sure to cross the minds of
many at Mr.
McKENZIE's funeral this morning, inside the Revivaltime
Tabernacle in Pickering.
But inside the church and out, it seems, God only knows.
