About the film

Are You Still Insisting on the Things You Like? is a 63-minute avant-garde film composed of a series of vignettes with dance, voice-over and music. Like a visual concept album, there is no overall narrative. This spiritual film uses absurd imagery and humor to explore the possibility of being happy even when your preferences aren’t being fulfilled.

Official Selection at the 2026 Santa Clarita International Film Festival.

The film is a longer version of the award-winning short The Things You Like, which received an Award of Commendation from Canada Shorts 2026.
