Cinema Politica X Sociology Film Series

Friday, Jan. 30, 12-2 p.m.

ED-2018-A

Cinema Politica is back in 2026!

Our first film is happening next Friday, January 30th from 12-2pm in ED2018-A. The film is free, everyone is welcome and all are encouraged to attend and bring their friends.

Our first film is FAIRY CREEK

The Fairy Creek (Ada’itsx) valley sprawls across Pacheedaht First Nation territory on southwestern Vancouver Island and its old growth forest ecosystem thrives with lush foliage, ancient tree trunks, and a variety of wildlife. However, the decimating chainsaws and tractor machinery of the Teal Jones lumber corporation disrupt this equilibrium as they demolish an environmental haven for their road-building project. Amidst the tumult, Jen Muranetz’s FAIRY CREEK captures the vast collective protests against this destructive logging operation: a movement which has spawned both the largest demonstration of civil disobedience in Canadian history and the mass arrests of 1200 people.

Presented by Department of Sociology
