The National Film Board of Canada (NFB) will be at the 27th Montreal International Documentary Festival (RIDM) with two feature films, including this year's closing film, Ninan Auassat: Nous, les enfants (Ninan Auassat: We, the Children, NFB), by Abenaki filmmaker Kim O'Bomsawin. Wilfred Buck (Door Number 3 Productions/NFB), by Anishinaabe filmmaker Lisa Jackson, will also be screening at RIDM, where it will be having its Quebec premiere. Both titles are in the Magnus Isacsson Competition. The short film Nalujuk Night (NFB, 2021), by Inuk visual artist Jennie Williams, will be shown as part of the Doc-to-Doc program, where directors whose latest projects are screening at RIDM discuss films they'd like audiences to discover. RIDM will take place from November 20 to December 1, 2024.
