Mark your calendars for this two-day film festival celebrating impactful, Indigenous cinema!
Beyond 150 Years: An Acknowledgement of Cinematic Territory is a premiere event to present, with utmost respect, some of the Indigenous filmmakers from within the REEL CANADA catalogue.
The REEL CANADA programme is limited to films appropriate for high school audiences, but the catalogue does include a number of essential works created through the Indigenous lens. This is an important occasion for us to recognize the First Peoples of this land and, of course, an opportunity to celebrate the impact of Indigenous cinematic stories.
Beyond 150 Years will present works from the past, the present and what we may expect for the future. It will feature two days of free public film screenings, film talks, artist talks, and a high school screening. Events will be presented at Vancity Film Centre in partnership with the Vancouver International Film Festival and the National Film Board of Canada.
Salute the achievements, resilience, impacts and continued contribution of Indigenous filmmakers of Canada.
