Student filmmakers
Two SFU filmmakers received international recognition in 2004. Contemporary arts alumnus Bart Simpson, co-producer of the critically acclaimed The Corporation, won the Sundance film festival’s Audience World Cinema award in the documentary category. The award is given to the top international documentary film, based on voting by film festival audiences.

Rita Tse’s Eastbound—a short film examining the cultural expectations of women in Chinese society—won the Norman McLaren award for best overall film at the 35th Canadian student film festival.
