SUMMARY:Gibsons Library: Film Screening: The Stand
DESCRIPTION:Join us to recognize National Indigenous Peoples Day by watching a powerful documentary on Haida resistance and environmental justice. \nOn a misty morning in the fall of 1985\, a small group of Haida people blockaded a muddy dirt road on Lyell Island\, demanding the government work with Indigenous people to find a way to protect the land and the future. In a riveting feature documentary drawn from more than a hundred hours of archival footage and audio\, award-winning director Christopher Auchter (Now Is the Time) recreates the critical moment when the Haida Nation’s resolute act of vision and conscience changed the world. \nRuntime: 95 min. \nRegistration required here.
