Quote:
"In the opening sequence of her film Reason over Passion [...], Wieland includes a written version of the words to O Canada immediately followed by a close-up of the lower half of her face silently mouthing the words to the national anthem. This firmly establishes Wieland as author of this alternative, gendered discourse of nation, literally claiming and re-presenting her own version of the anthem as intimately bound to the bodily and sensorial."
