Not-to-be-missed new releases produced or co-produced by the NFB are coming to nfb.ca in October. The feature-length documentary A Return to Memory, by renowned director Donald McWilliams, will be launched on nfb.ca on October 18 to mark Women's History Month in Canada. Meanwhile, the acclaimed animated shorts Aphasia by Marielle Dalpé and Miserable Miracle by Ryo Orikasa will stream beginning on October 28 in celebration of International Animation Day.
October is also rich in cultural events, and nfb.ca remains an online destination of choice for insights into important topics. Our collection curators have designed themed channels and a blog entry to mark Latin American Heritage Month and Halloween, among other events.
Highlighting the rich collection of more than 14,000 works that it is preserving, digitizing and restoring, the NFB will also be marking World Day for Audiovisual Heritage on October 27. These works have been made widely accessible and continue to inspire the creation of new films based on archives, including Donald McWilliams's A Return to Memory.
