SUMMARY:North Star
DESCRIPTION:As part of THE NFB IN LIBRARIES programming\, the Acton Branch 
 of the Halton Hills Public Library will present North Star for their Halto
 n Hills Film Festival.\nNorth Star| Patrick Bossé | 2023 | 5 × 15 min 
 | voiceover in English \nThe documentary series North Star follows the 
 inspiring journey of Laurie Rousseau-Nepton\, resident astronomer at the r
 enowned Canada-France-Hawaii Telescope. As head of the SIGNALS project\, s
 he leads a team of some 60 scientists. Together\, they study the formation
  of stars to better understand their influence on the universe.  \n\nDir
 ected by Patrick Bossé\, the series portrays the extraordinary daily life
  of this Quebec-born scientist with Innu roots. From the summit of the vol
 cano Mauna Kea\, Laurie uses cutting-edge instruments to make the sky reve
 al its secrets. The five short episodes\, which blend Rousseau-Nepton’s 
 personal story with scientific explanations\, reveal a determined young wo
 man who shines in a traditionally male-dominated profession. An outstandin
 g science popularizer\, Laurie conveys her passion for celestial objects a
 nd the importance of knowing where we came from to understand where we’r
 e going.  \n\nNorth Star - (Trailer)\n\n---\n\nFREE SCREENING\nTo have m
