The film is presented in the screening Modes 1, taking place Saturday September 30 at 18:00 in Vancity Theatre and on Saturday October 7 at 16:15 in The Cinematheque.

Square the Circle poses a question: How to be a circle in a square world? In a two-dimensional space, out of time, a person seeks their belonging to the world through a journey to infinity.

Hanna Hovitie (born 1991) is a film director and video artist from Helsinki, Finland. Her films have been shown and awarded at several prominent international festivals such as DOK Leipzig, Melbourne International Film Festival, Sheffield DocFest, and International Film Festival Rotterdam.
