The Ottawa Public Library welcomes you to a thought-provoking, day-long film festival, presented in partnership with the National Film Board of Canada, on National Day for Truth and Reconciliation.
To commemorate National Day for Truth and Reconciliation, OPL chose to honour the Indigenous oral tradition by amplifying Indigenous voices and bring together our communities in the spirit of truth and reconciliation. Through the lens of these award-winning documentaries, the power of storytelling will help educate, inspire, and unite communities, as we reflect on our shared history and the path forward.
So join us on September 30th, online via Zoom or at one of our seven open branches, on a cinematic journey centered around the theme of residential schools that explores the rich tapestry of Indigenous history, culture, and the path towards reconciliation.
Stay with us throughout the day, or join us at planned times for specific films according to the schedule below:
10h15: Word of welcome
10h18: Sisters & Brothers
10h21: We Were Children
11h43: Honour to Senator Murray Sinclair
12h12: We Can't Make the Same Mistake Twice
14h54: Stories Are in Our Bones
15h05: The Road Forward
