DIGIN to DOCS: Street Health Stories & The Interventionists

The last edition of DIG IN to DOCS for this season is tomorrow (May 12th) at 7:00 PM. We will be at Bloor Collegiate (1141 Bloor St West) one last time to showcase two films: Street Health Stories and The Interventionists. The two films are projects from the NFB's Filmmaker-in Residence program. This collaborative initiative with St. Michael's Hospital is the NFB's effort to reach out to communities and places media creation into the hands of the citizens - the agents of true social change. (You may have read about the Filmmaker-in Residence program in the Star or the Globe and Mail recently.) Guests for tomorrows screening include:

• Kate Mason, Researcher, Street Health
• Kat Cizek, filmmaker
• Anne Longair, Director of Hostel Services, City of Toronto
• 14 Division MCIT Unit - Constable Malcolm Curtis and Connie Stefan

We hope to see you at the screening!

DIGIN to DOCS - Through a Blue Lens

The next edition of DIGIN to DOCS is tonight (Monday April 14) at 7:00 PM. Please come to Bloor Collegiate, 1141 Bloor St West, to watch the next film in our film series, Through a Blue Lens. In this documentary, addicts talk openly about how they ended up on the streets. Through their participation in this film, they want to stop others from joining their nightmare. Michael's Bloor-Lansdowne Blog has a nice write up on the film. We hope to see you out tonight.
