Hymn to the layman
The short documentary Hymn to the Layman is inspired by words, cultures and people on the streets of Vancouver's Downtown Eastside. Nathan Slattery is an artist on a world journey; from the Emerald Isle to Los Angeles, from Toronto to New York, Ethiopia and Somalia, to the summit of the Himalayas, and now to the streets of the Downtown Eastside. Seeing the peaks of the North Shore Lions, Nathan thought of Nepal and that cured the loneliness of the moment..."we are all one step away from being anywhere...at any time or any situation".
