SUMMARY:A Return to Memory
DESCRIPTION:CFUW Cornwall &amp\; District and the Cornwall Labour Council i
 nvite you to a free screening of\n\nA Return to Memory  a film by Donald M
 cWilliams (2024 | 116 minutes)\n\n\nThe intrepid women who helped create C
 anadian cinema come to vibrant life in A Return to Memory\, a fascinating
  documentary illuminating their vital but little-known role in establishin
 g Canada’s National Film Board. Juxtaposing a dazzling array of archival
  material with dynamic animation\, the film evokes the heady wartime years
 \, when\, with men engaged elsewhere in the war effort\, hundreds of women
  pursued careers at the newly formed public producer\, playing a key part 
 in transforming the NFB into a major international studio and helping lay 
 the groundwork for the Canadian documentary film tradition. Their stories 
 have been woefully overlooked\, but are now brought to glorious life in th
 e rich archival footage making up the film. A Return to Memory rediscover
 s the women and their work\, and rewrites documentary history.\n\nExcerpt 
 from the film: https://vimeo.com/946646845\n\nThis event is free but donat
 ions at the door are welcomed for the Last Resort Program by the United Wa
 y. All are welcome\; pre-registration is not required. For more info\, con
