So Surreal: Behind the Masks traces the storied journey of Yup’ik and Kwakwakaʼwakw masks into the hands of European Surrealists, influencing the work and worldview of some of the most iconic modern artists and writers of all time. Part caper, part road trip, part spiritual journey, So Surreal: Behind the Masks follows Cree filmmaker Neil Diamond as he travels coast-to-coast and across the Atlantic and back, gradually piecing together this groundbreaking story of influence, reconnection and restitution.
Directed by Neil Diamond and Joanne Robertson
