SUMMARY:The Stand - Vancouver Public Library - Central Library
DESCRIPTION:As part of THE NFB IN LIBRARIES programming\, the Central Libra
 ry of the Vancouver Public Library will present The Stand.\n\nThe Stand | 
 Filmmaker: Christopher Auchter | 2024 | 95 min\n\nOn a misty morning in t
 he fall of 1985\, a small group of Haida people blockaded a muddy dirt roa
 d on Lyell Island\, demanding the government work with Indigenous people t
 o find a way to protect the land and the future. In a riveting new feature
  documentary drawn from more than a hundred hours of archival footage and 
 audio\, award-winning director Christopher Auchter (Now Is the Time) rec
 reates the critical moment when the Haida Nation’s resolute act of visio
 n and conscience changed the world.\n\nFollowing the screening of this fil
 m\, we will host a discussion and Q&amp\;A with director Christopher Auch
 ter\, facilitated by APTN journalist Tina House.\nChristopher Auchter gre
 w up roaming the beaches and forests of the Haida Gwaii archipelago off Ca
 nada’s West Coast\, and his art is rooted in the land and stories of the
  Haida people. Auchter’s art practice is fuelled by his close connection
  to the natural environment\, his adventures in forestry and commercial fi
 shing\, and by the colourful people with whom he has lived and worked. Fro
 m early on\, he recorded his feelings and impressions as images\, and toda
 y his filmmaking serves the same function.\n\n\nTHE STAND | Official Trail
 er | National Film Board of Canada\n\n———-\nFREE SCREENING\nFor more
