Discover Ontario: Explore the province with fascinating docs and special guests. In this screening, visit St. Catharines.
Long before the advent of Jackass and The Tom Green Show, St. Catharines native Ralph Zavadil (aka Cap'n Video) dazzled audiences with his cable access stunts.
An apt mix of humour and humanity, Beauty Day chronicles the life and times of Zavadil. In the tradition of Errol Morris's Vernon, Florida and Chris Smith's American Movie, the film combines broad comedic beats with Zavadil's personal memories and life lessons, offering a delightful portrait of a true Canadian original.
Director Jay Cheel and subject Ralph Zavadil will be in attendance for a post-screening Q&A.
