PORTRAIT # 1: CASCADIA TERMINAL

A mesmerizing stare with a hypnotic score at the most efficient grain terminal at the port of Vancouver, B.C. The terminal is serviced by the Canadian Pacific Railway and can unload up to 300 cars in 24 hours which is equal to approximately 25.800 tons of prairie grain. Cascadia Terminal is a place where many kids used to hang out and get high and make out, a ruin of sorts, even though it is still operating. Since shooting this film Cascadia Terminal has become tied up with «homeland security» type port issues, and it is not possible to go and hang out there anymore.
