The film portrait of the acclaimed Canadian cartoonist Seth is presented here as an innovative double-spined hardcover that opens in two directions, one with a photo essay narrating his life while the other offers a generous sampling of his art: comics and sketchbook pages, but also puppetry and New Yorker illustrations. Between these two halves lies Seth's Dominion, the National Film Board documentary by filmmaker Luc Chamberland a masterly portrait that mixes insightful biography with vivid animation in an artful fusion of filmmaking techniques that perfectly captures Seth's manifold creative universe.
