Award-winning documentary—Free screening. Celebrate African Heritage Month with an award-winning NFB documentary screening at the Canadian Museum of Immigration at Pier 21. Join us for a FREE screening of A Mother Apart, a powerful documentary that explores the strength of family and heritage featuring powerhouse Jamaican-American poet and LGBTQ+ activist Staceyann Chin as she re-images the essential art of mothering—having been abandoned by her own mother. The film was screened at the 2024 Inside Out Film and Video Festival, where it won the juried awards for Best Canadian Film and Best First Feature Film, and the audience award for Best Documentary Film. In partnership with National Film Board of Canada. Supported by TD Bank Ready Commitment.
