Patricia Rozema

Canadian film director

Patricia Rozema worked in film at a period when the medium itself was still changing shape.

The record lists Patricia Rozema as Canadian film director.

Patricia Rozema was born at Kingston in 1958. Her recorded nationality is Canada. She trained at Calvin University.

By this period cinema was global and fragmented: independent finance, festival circuits and television drama competing for the same talent.

The record gives her roles in the industry as film director, screenwriter and film editor.

The screen flattens effort: a performance that took months reads as a few unhurried minutes.

The awards record reads: Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Special Class Program.

That the work was made from Canada shaped it: national industries differ in what they finance, who they cast and which audiences they can reach.

Patricia Rozema is still working, and the shape of the career is not yet settled.
