The Cinema Studies Institute is delighted to share the news that one of our doctoral students, Petra Totten, has been selected to be among the final cohort of Vanier Scholars supported by SSHRC. Petra was selected from a highly competitive pool of scholars—first at the University of Toronto and then nationally—and will work on her project "Experiential Poesis: A Research-Creation Project Uncovering New Ways of Creating Trans*-Focused Nonfiction Cinema."
We are so thrilled for Petra (and her thesis committee) and look forward to seeing what she research-creates.
Congrats Petra!
