CanFilm Day: Movie Screening - Angry Inuk

CanFilm Day: Movie Screening - Angry Inuk In-Person

Join us for National Canadian Film Week (April 15-19) where we will celebrate the talent and achievements of Canadian filmmakers and Canadian stories with daily film viewings for kids, teens and adults! Drop-in. First come, first served for seating.


Angry Inuk
We all know about the terrible “brutality” of the Arctic seal hunt — or do we? Turns out there are other sides to this story: it's the story of families that need to be fed, the story of a hunting practice that began centuries ago and the story of a tradition that is central to the economy and food security of Inuit communities in the Canadian Arctic. Angry Inuk contains a story that’s over 4,000 years old.

Documentary


National Canadian Film Day (CanFilmDay) is a massive, coast-to-coast-to-coast salute to Canadian cinema! Launched in 2014, CanFilmDay has brought together hundreds of thousands of Canadians, to celebrate our stories and the incredible achievements of Canadian filmmakers.
 

2024 Spotlight: Films that A.I. Could Never Make

“The power of the human spirit will never be obsolete!” – Manborg (2013)

With A.I. creeping into all aspects of our lives, there’s been a worldwide discussion about how it will impact art, and films in particular. However, we know that there is no algorithm that can replicate the creativity, diversity, and originality of Canadian filmmakers. Nothing can replace the passion, soul, and personal vision that is at the heart of these 50 Canadian films made by Canadian humans for Canadian humans.

So this CanFilmDay, prove you’re not a bot by watching a great Canadian film!
