SUMMARY:Film Screening: Love\, Scott
DESCRIPTION:Join us for this special screening from the National Film Board\, in honour of Pride Month. No registration is required. \nLove\, Scott (75 min) \nWhile walking on the street one night in a small town in Canada\, Scott Jones\, a gay musician\, is attacked and paralyzed from the waist down; what follows is a brave and fragile journey of healing and the transformation of a young man’s life. From the first raw moments in the hospital to a disquieting trip back to the place he was attacked\, Scott is constantly faced with the choice of losing himself in waves of grief or embracing love over fear. Filmed over three years by Scott’s close friend\, Love\, Scott is an intimate and visually evocative window into queer experience\, set against a stunning score by Sigur Rós.

SUMMARY:Film Screenings: Into the Light & Inkwo
DESCRIPTION:Join us for this special screening from the National Film Board\, in honour of Pride Month. No registration is required. \nInto Light (19 min) \nSet against the Northern landscape of Yellowknife\, Sheona McDonald’s new documentary\, Into Light\, captures a season of change as a mother and child navigate the complexities of gender identity together. As elemental changes parallel this extraordinary journey\, the return of brighter days uncovers a confident and social little girl with an encyclopedic knowledge of dinosaurs\, a deep love of animals\, and a parent who fully embraces this magical person. \nInkwo (19 min) \nTwo lifetimes from now the world hangs in the balance. Dove\, a young\, enigmatic\, gender-shifting warrior\, discovers the gifts and burdens of their Inkwo (medicine) to defend against an army of hungry\, ferocious monsters. Dove’s courage\, resilience and alliance with the Earth culminates in a battle against these flesh-consuming creatures\, who become stronger with each body and soul they devour. Inkwo: for When the Starving Return is a call to action to fight and protect against the forces of greed around us.
