More NFB productions and co-productions than ever, from regions across the country, will be available for free streaming on nfb.ca in April. They include three compelling new films that are getting their online launches: Karsten Wall's short documentary Modern Goose, which reveals how the mysteries of the natural world persist despite continual urbanization; Nisreen Baker's feature-length doc Arab Women Say What?!, sharing the provocative perspectives of a group of Arab women living in Canada; and Monique LeBlanc's feature The Geographies of DAR, a film about renowned author David Adams Richards and his connection to Miramichi, New Brunswick, one of Canada's most overlooked yet breathtaking regions.
The April offering also includes various themed days, including Earth Day, with six channels exploring topics in the arts and science. In total, nfb.ca now features more than 6,500 online films and a collection of more than 100 interactive works.
