SUMMARY:Ninth Floor
DESCRIPTION:As part of THE NFB IN LIBRARIES programming for Black History M
 onth\, the Ottawa Public Library will have multiple bilingual screenings 
 throughout March throughout their 33 branches.\n\nFor more info\, contact 
 the organiser: biblioottawalibrary.ca\n\nNinth Floor (MINA SHUM | 2015
  | 81 min)\n\nIt started quietly when a group of Caribbean students\, str
 angers in a cold new land\, began to suspect their professor of racism.\n\
 nIt ended in the most explosive 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 contested episodes in the nation’s history.\n\nMaki
 ng a compassionate and audacious foray into non-fiction\, writer and direc
 tor Mina Shum locates the protagonists in clandestine locations throughout
  Trinidad and Montreal\, the wintry city where it all went down.\n\nIn a c
 inematic gesture of reckoning 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 have we learned? What really happened up there on
  the 9th floor?
