One of the most amazing stories in the natural world -- a tale of intrigue and drama, set against grand #Africa and its #wildlife.
The #FigTree and #FigWasp differ in size a billion times over, but neither could exist without the other. Their extraordinary relationship underpins a complex web of dependency that supports animals from ants to elephants. Each #fig is a #microcosm -- a stage set for birth, sex and death.

FOR NEDA reveals the true story of Neda Agha-Soltan, who became another tragic casualty of Iran's violent crackdown on post-election protests on June 20, 2009.

With exclusive access to her family inside #Iran , the #documentary goes to the heart of who Neda was and what she stood for, illuminating the larger #Iranian struggle for democratic freedoms through her powerful story.

Nalujuk Night is an up close look at an exhilarating, and sometimes terrifying, #Labrador #Inuit tradition. Every January 6th from the dark of the #Nunatsiavut night, the #Nalujuit appear on the sea ice. They walk on two legs, yet their faces are animalistic, skeletal, and otherworldly. Snow crunches underfoot as they approach their destination: the Inuit community of #Nain.
Despite the frights, Nalujuk Night is a beloved annual event, showing that sometimes it can be fun to be scared. Rarely witnessed outside of Nunatsiavut, this annual event is an exciting chance for Inuit, young and old, to prove their courage and come together as a community to celebrate #culture and #tradition.
#Inuk filmmaker Jennie Williams brings audiences directly into the action in this bone-chilling black and white short #documentary about a winter night like no other.

Dominique Leclerc embarks on a thought-provoking journey into the cutting-edge world of #cyborgs , #biohackers and #transhumanists —a collective pushing the boundaries of #technology to defy illness, aging and even death. Having relied on #medical devices for years, Leclerc seeks alternative solutions to cope with her diabetes, but as she delves deeper, she grapples with the profound ethical, social and political implications of human enhancement. What happens when our physical and cognitive upgrades are shaped by the interests of tech giants? Led by Frannie Holder’s haunting original score, Posthumans offers a compelling meditation on the future of our species and the cost of progress.

Told entirely from a #ChildsPerspective, Ninan Auassat: We, the Children is a powerful and immersive #documentary that reveals the dreams of a new generation ready to take flight. Renowned for her intimate and compelling films, director Kim O’Bomsawin takes us deep into the world of #IndigenousYouth , capturing the stories of #children from the #Atikamekw , #EeyouCree and #Innu Nations over a period of more than six years. Without adult narration or expert commentary, the film offers an unfiltered look at #childhood as it unfolds, from everyday life to defining moments on the path to #adulthood. It’s a bold cinematic statement—one that gives space to a generation eager to be heard. Their voices ring out, not just as personal stories, but as a call to action, demanding recognition and the chance to thrive on their own terms.

This short #documentary highlights how the mechanism of #discrimination prevents foreign-trained #doctors from practicing in #Canada – even after they've received their #Canadian qualifications. Every year, scores of these doctors are turned down for the residencies they need in order to practice – and many of those residencies stay vacant. Through interviews with #medical professionals and #HumanRights advocates it becomes clear that #SystemicRacism is to blame. Strikingly, several doctors interviewed for this film would not speak on camera, fearing repercussions from the medical establishment. What is the real problem: the incompetence of foreign-trained doctors or the #injustice of the system?
