About this Event
A FILM SERIES DEDICATED TO THE GOOD, THE BAD, AND THE UGLY OF POLITICAL LIFE.
REEL Politics is an innovative 8 film series of evenings designed to bring people together at the intersection of politics, culture, and storytelling.
Designed to spark conversation and inspire curiosity, the eight films selected offer a mix of fun, earnest, and borderline surreal perspectives on political life. Each evening will feature special guest observations on the themes or production of the film.
Profits from this series will be used to support the and the . Our goal support young Canadians who are eager to get involved in public life, equipping them with the tools, experience, and networks they need to make a meaningful impact.
Whether you're a politico, wonk, or just love a good story, REEL Politics invites you to join us for eight nights that will entertain, inform, and (hopefully) inspire. Come for the movie (and the free popcorn!), and help encourage young people and stimulating conversations.
REEL Politics is organized by local volunteers including Mollie Anderson, Jennifer Robson, Kathleen Davis, Isobel Haddow, Samantha Wilkie, Erica Martin, Chris Schlesak and Bruce Anderson. We are grateful for support from a diverse group of generous sponsors, and help in promotion from National Newswatch, Politico, Hill Times and Spark Advocacy.
