SUMMARY:Ninth Floor
DESCRIPTION:As part of THE NFB IN LIBRARIES programming for Black History M
 onth\, the Cochrane Public Library is offering a free screening of the fol
 lowing film:\n\n\nNinth Floor (MINA SHUM | 2015 | 81 min)\n\nIt starte
 d quietly when a group of Caribbean students\, strangers in a cold new lan
 d\, began to suspect their professor of racism.\n\nIt ended in the most ex
 plosive student uprising Canada had ever known.\n\nOver four decades later
 \, Ninth Floor reopens the file on the infamous Sir George Williams Riot
  – a watershed moment in Canadian race relations and one of the most con
 tested episodes in the nation’s history.\n\nMaking a compassionate and a
 udacious foray into non-fiction\, writer and director Mina Shum locates th
 e protagonists in clandestine locations throughout Trinidad and Montreal\,
  the wintry city where it all went down.\n\nIn a cinematic gesture of reck
 oning and redemption\, she listens as they set the record straight — and
  lay their burden down.\n\nCan we make peace with the past? What lessons h
 ave we learned? What really happened up there on the 9th floor?\n\n\n--
