452:(2002), an epic project some ten years in the making, is a three-hour long meditation on transcendence shot across three continents in a dizzying array of locations, including Toronto's airport strip, where Toronto Airport Fellowship Church congregates dance and swoon at an evangelical service, Las Vegas, where crowds gather to witness a demolition, ZĂĽrich, where addicts speak of their marginal existence, and southern India, where Mettler's approach to street life and worship becomes more observational. The final cut was derived from a 55-hour long assembly of unique footage, which Mettler said was like "composing a piece of music". "The finished film is long by conventional standards", wrote Cameron Bailey, "but it has the immersive feel of a great concert, or religious experience, or dream".
547:(2009) found Mettler returning to a somewhat more experimental form, examining the titular subject, the world's largest industrial, capital and energy project, exclusively from a great distance and at a great height. Largely wordless, the film is at once bleak and wondrous, a study in both feats of industry and ecological malfeasance. "The object of the documentary isn't the vast domain of the oil sands, one visible from space and part of a post-terrestrial, post-human landscape", writes Georgiana Banita, "but something very human indeed, dependent on the viewers' ability to make sense, literally, of what they see on the surface of the earth, whose every mound and fracture the film painstakingly resisters". Jerry White in
618:, writes critic Adam Nayman, "exists in the twilight zone that is home to much of the best non-fiction filmmaking: at once rousing and sobering, baffling and precise, epic and intimate"." The film's final stop is Mettler's childhood home, where he visits his mother, then in her eighties, to ask about her sense of time's passage. Time is there to enjoy everything you possibly can, she says. “Is that the right answer?” Mettler closes the film on a note of ambiguity. "Like the scientists with whom and about whom he makes his films", writes scholar Jerry White in
482:. Since 2005, Mettler has worked with the software company Derivative to develop an ever-evolving image-mixing software platform. Mettler regards the work of image-mixing as a way of processing material in an image-saturated culture: "you're taking images that are coming at you from the world and making them your own. You're possessing the things that are bombarding you all the time." Mettler's image-mixing work has developed almost entirely in live, ephemeral contexts, but a "hallucinatory portal sequence" in
254:(1985), an intuitive travelogue diary: a form that would become a hallmark of his filmmaking style. With stops in Switzerland, Germany and Portugal, "the film presents a freely flowing series of impulsive, impressionistic images: urban and rural, artificial and natural". Throughout the 1980s, in addition to working on his own personal projects, Mettler would also collaborate as a cinematographer on several key films in the Toronto New Wave cinema, such as

474:, Mettler became interested in developing an improvisational approach to cinematic montage within a live context. Using material from his own films, including countless hours of outtakes and an immense personal trove of diaristic video, alongside a virtually unlimited range of found footage sources, Mettler creates audiovisual mixes through live improvisation, often accompanied by an improvising musician, such as
323:, "is an intriguing and visually tantalizing collage that bridges the two media in a way that structurally underscores Lepage's themes of convergence, separation and transformation". The play is a series of vignettes that draw inspiration from the movement of geologic tectonic plates. This metaphor expanded Mettler's associative approach to narrative, which would be developed further in his later documentaries
126:, "strange spectacles that defy straightforward documentation, and sacred places that promise some metaphysical deliverance. There are precedents for his methodologies—the films of Chris Marker and Werner Herzog come to mind—but Mettler’s gifts as an open and unobtrusive interviewer and his capacity to discover shared sensibilities between people of vastly diverse cultures and creeds feels singular."
317:, in collaboration with Lepage and Theatre Repère. Rather than document a performance or adapt the stage narrative into screen drama, the film, shot on location in Venice, Scotland, and Montreal, "seeks to articulate cinematically the intersections of theatre and cinema, past and present, culture and nature, interior and exterior, representation and reality". "The result", writes Vit Wagner in the
