Long Time Coming is comprised entirely of remixed audio and video from the last period of the 2004 Stanley Cup Final (Calgary vs. Tampa Bay). What emerges is the sexualized nature of the dance – where seductive glances give way to serious bump and grind, and a lifetime of longings are finally fulfilled. This is Canada’s national pastime as you’ve never seen it before.
