Our hearts go out to Shelley Klassen and Jason Hall for the tragic loss of their 10-year-old son Lionel. Lionel’s life was cut short in a tragic boating accident on the North Shore, on what should have been a fun Saturday afternoon out with his friends.
Lionel was pure joy and a bright light to all who knew him; he was clever, sweet, and an incredibly talented athlete.
Shelley is a local fashion designer with a downtown Vancouver shop (formerly Blushing Boutique and now Shelley Klassen).
We have known Shelley and her husband, Jason Hall, for over 20 years. Shelley has been incredibly generous, dressing our team and many of our actor clients for and awards, as well as talk show appearances, over the years. She has faced the challenges of being an independent business owner and the financial uncertainty that goes with it.
Please join us by donating to https://www.gofundme.com/f/e3kn9-donate-to-help-a-grieving-family
This will help with the expenses and the time needed for their family, and children Julius and Abigail, to grieve.
We send you all our love. Words can't express your loss.

Field Sketches is a personal film that grew from Director/Writer/Producer Carl Bessai’s filmmaking journey. After a life of making films, what matters most to a person? Carl, a long-time resident of Toronto now based in Vancouver, BC, sharing time between Toronto and Los Angeles, is thrilled to bring his twentieth film to Toronto. Nine of Carl’s feature films have screened at TIFF, including Johnny, Lola, Emile, Unnatural & Accidental, Normal, Mothers & Daughters, Cole, Repeaters and Sisters & Brothers. Former TIFF programmer Steve Gravestock will be the talk-back host for the Q&A after the film. Field Sketches Toronto Theatrical Premiere at the R***e Cinema will screen on Wednesday, June 11th, 2025, at 6:45 PM with the cast and director in attendance.

Peter (Vincent Gale), a middle-aged architect whose business and personal life are imploding, has been trying to return to his creative roots as an architect. His successful partnership with his college friend Bruce (David Cubitt) has left him feeling like he can no longer find the art in his creative practice. With nothing left to hold him in the city, Peter decides to move to his family farm and spend the winter in Saskatchewan. He soon discovers that pioneer life is much more than he bargained for. And the silence and loneliness play tricks on his imagination.

Carl Bessai is a writer/director/producer/cinematographer based in Vancouver, BC, Toronto and Los Angeles, California. His feature films have appeared in numerous festivals, including Sundance, Berlin, and Toronto, have been released worldwide, and have won numerous critics’ prizes, jury prizes, and film awards. He has directed some of the world’s leading acting talent, including Sir Ian McKellen (Emile, Lord of the Rings, X-Men), Carrie Ann Moss (Normal, The Matrix Films), Bruce Greenwood (Rehearsal, Star Trek), Tantoo Cardinal (Mothers&Daughters, Dances with Wolves), and Bruce Dern (The Lears, Nebraska).

Vincent Gale is known for his work on Van Helsing, X-Men Evolution, Watson, The Dragon Prince, Midnight Mass, Snowpiercer and Supernatural.
