Anthony Cristiano is an Italian-born Canadian film director, educator, and writer. As a film director, Cristiano's style is chiefly characterized by a poetic tone via the use of raw film texture, counterpointed use of music, and psychologically meandering situations and characters. This style is manifested in his DVD titled "A Self-Conscious Mise-en-scene", which is released in 2008 and consists of 10 short films he made between the years 1998–2008. The DVD collection was later presented and screened by Cristiano in a special lecture at the Frank Iacobucci Centre in University of Toronto.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=https://www.google.com/calendar/event?eid=NGM4Y2w1aTlmdWs0cG0wYXU1YzN0dTF2MDQgOTZxcjRtbWFvaWs5dDlxbTNvNjNkZWxxYmNAZw&ctz=America/Toronto )〕 Cristiano is also a film scholar.

For example, his short films ''Il mio umore'' (2000)〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.bravofact.com/2011/06/08/il-mio-umore-2000/ )〕 and ''Intervalli chiaroscuri'' (2002)〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.bravofact.com/2011/06/08/intervalli-chiaroscuri-2001/ )〕 are based on his homonymous poems. In ''Infinitely Near'' (1999), which appeared at the ''30th Student Film & Video Festival'' of Montreal World Film Festival,〔''Festival des Films du Monde Montréal Programme Officiel''. August 1999. p.368.〕 Cristiano explores the issues of everyday life and human relationship through the mathematical concept of limit.〔 The character of the mathematics professor in ''Infinitely Near'' was played by Patrick O'Donnell, a physics professor at University of Toronto, who also appeared in Gus Van Sant's ''Good Will Hunting''. Cristiano also uses short film to express his scholarly ideas. Screened in New York, his ''A Matter of Style'' discusses cinematic theory as the dialogue between two different styles of chair.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://calendar.artcat.com/exhibits/1449 )〕''A Self-Conscious Mise-en-scene''(2006) is based on Cristiano's short story "The Millenary Man".〔(【引用サイトリンク】FILMS FROM NOVA SCOTIA )">url=http://www.filmarchive.org.nz/the-catalogue/media/media-train-short-films-from-nova-scotia-f196720?option=com_events&task=view_detail&agid=2016 )〕 In his scholarly article about this short film, titled "A Self-Conscious Mise-en-scène: Experimenting with ‘Disownment and Appropriation’", Cristiano explains his experimental work as a way to solve a communicative crisis.
