The Newest Olds is the second installment in Argentinian filmmaker Pablo Mazzoloâs cinematic diptych exploring the natural and urban environment within and surrounding the border region of WindsorâDetroit. Completed seven years after the release of Fish Point (2015), Mazolloâs revelatory study of light and landscape that animated the deciduous forest harbours and rare ecosystem at the southeastern tip of Pelee Island, The Newest Olds transforms Detroitâs iconic cityscapes, dislodging buildings from their foundations and collapsing the physical, political, and sensory boundaries between Canada and the United States through alchemical, in-camera, and optical printing techniques.
