NATIONAL DAY FOR TRUTH AND RECONCILIATION
Film fans enjoyed special screenings of four exceptional feature films by Indigenous creators. Those attending were also treated to a beautiful performance by The LaBelle Sisters who performed a compilation of fancy, jingle and hoop dance. A portion of the ticket proceeds from these screenings was donated to the Urban Society for Aboriginal Youth (USAY). With 461 tickets sold, CIFF was able to donate $1,844 towards their Gear Up Event to purchase winter wear for street youth.
