Brian Stockton’s series of humourous autobiographical shorts takes a detour into architecture with this 5 minute ‘appendix’ about renowned Saskatchewan architect Joseph Pettick. Pettick has designed a staggering 500 buildings in Saskatchewan, and his impact on the province and the filmmaker is enormous. “I have lived my life in Joseph Pettick’s buildings” states the narration. Stockton explores three of Pettick’s masterpieces including Grant Road Elementary School which had a huge impact on the filmmaker’s early life and has figured prominently in Stockton’s Epic Story of my Life series.
