The Incorrigibles
2019 // Canada // 15 min. 24 sec. During the interwar period in Eastern Ontario incorrigibility was considered a criminal offense under the Female Refuges
Act and those who were imprisoned were typically young, underprivileged women. A young woman named Mary is sent to
an industrial refuge under the pretense of incorrigibility but defies the governing structures by taking her destiny into her
own hands.
This film was directed and produced by Ali Dixon as her undergraduate thesis project at Queen's University, Kingston ON.
It took over the course of eight months to complete.
