African revolutionaries, wall-unit redemption, and haircuts by children...fantastic. wonderful self-contained short debut from the wacky imagination of megan martin. battling platoons of adolescents battling with the strife and friction of everyday life cast sideways through the canted lens of a removed but relevant saskatoon experience. deft handling of what is a cleverly invoked rumination on the whats and hows of encountering sexuality in a mundane - and for that, reason, socially and political - context. one of the smartest shorts this side of the moon, with tight technical insight and an edited rhythm that leaves any audience taken with the seemingly petty but entirely monumental machinations of memorialized youth culture and the little idiosyncratic instances we all lived and, importantly, collectively recall and remember.

Martin's directorial debut will make TIFF sit up and take notice!

Daring, seethingly funny, dark, and humbling, Ninth Street takes you back to a summer in the 80s--boredom, angst, coveting normalcy, experimentations with life and love...all from the perspective of a child (contrary to that imposed upon her by adults). Ninth Street Chronicles is a gorgeously shot, brilliantly written short by writer and first-time director Megan Martin.

Child prostitution, affairs, mental anguish, addiction, world events, first love, tall-tales, and drugstore cowboys...from the perspective of Sarah, a smart, inquisitive, smart, no-bullshit 10-year old girl (Samantha Weinstein). Speedo Boy is brilliantly cast, Weinstein's portrayal of Sarah is mesmerizing. I hope to see more from Megan Martin's imagination soon!

I loved this film!

Ninth Street Chronicles played with my short at Austin Film Festival last weekend, and I have to say, it was probably my favorite of the bunch. (Aquarium also rocked).

I felt the film was daring but real. Never trying too hard for some kind of forced quirkiness but just going for the guts of whatever it was exploring and pulling you into that in the warmest possible way.

The acting was incredible and the direction was great. It was easy to lose myself inside it...

I'd really love to see more from Megan Martin and more starring Samantha Weinstein!
