As part of THE NFB IN LIBRARIES, the Port Colborne Public Library is offering a free screening of the following film:

In The Secret Order (Phil Comeau | 2022 | 1 h 24 min), former members of the organization step out of the shadows for the first time, witnesses tell their stories and experts offer context and explanation. We also get to see an initiation ceremony, brought to life by captivating reconstructed sequences.

By retracing his own father’s secret journey, Phil Comeau shines a spotlight on the Ordre de Jacques-Cartier and paints a gripping portrait of the social and political struggles faced by Canadian francophone-minority communities during the 20th century.
