Lipsett Diaries

[2] Ushev was inspired to make a film about Lipsett, after Robinson had forwarded him an email where the late filmmaker was discussed.

He began to do some research and was surprised to learn that Lipsett had lived on the same street as him in Montreal.

Ushev went to the building where Lipsett once lived and met with the concierge, who showed him a locker where belongings from former tenants were stored.

There, Ushev discovered a small blue notebook with "Lipsett" written on it, containing notes by the late filmmaker.

[3] The film was animated by hand-painting the frames, using computer editing to link the images.
