White Squall

THE EDITORS

I teach English as a second language to immigrants and refugees to Canada, and I use Stan Rogers songs in almost every element of my curriculum: “The Idiot” when I talk about leaving your roots behind, “White Squall” when I teach the geography of Ontario, and many others. I am sure my students couldn’t get a better feel for the country than through his poetry and music.

VIFF 2024: Blink

Blink is a documentary film from National Geographic, which follows a Montreal family with four children, three of whom have retinitis pigmentosa, a genetic condition causing gradual loss of vision and probable blindness. They decide to set out on a trip around the world, in order to fill their children’s visual memories, so that they can at least recall the world and its wonders.
