As part of THE NFB IN LIBRARIES annual programming, the Antigonish Town & County Library is offering free public screening of the following film:

The Whale and the Raven (Mirjam Leuze | 2019 | 101 min)

Director Mirjam Leuze’s The Whale and the Raven illuminates the many issues that have drawn whale researchers, the Gitga’at First Nation, and the Government of British Columbia into a complex conflict. As the people in the Great Bear Rainforest struggle to protect their territory against the pressure and promise of the gas industry, caught in between are the countless beings that call this place home.
