MAGINE A WORLD where thousands of films are made about workers and the conditions under which they live, work, fight, and succeed in their daily lives!
In 2009, Toronto will see the first-ever Canadian Labour International Film Festival (CLiFF). This will also mark the first ever labour-oriented film festival in Canada.
The world of labour has found it increasingly difficult to communicate its message as fewer and fewer people have greater control over the means of communication - the media.
It is more important than ever that working people be able to tell their own stories in their own words and in their own images.
With the wide availability of digital still and video cameras, camera-phones, and other tools, activists can now make their stories - but still find it difficult to exhibit their narratives.
CLiFF will be that venue, the first of many throughout Canada, we hope, and around the world.

In solidarity with those feeling the effects of the Vancouver 2010 a little more closely on the other side of the country, Hamilton FreeSkool and Common Cause Hamilton present the documentary "Five Ring Circus", examining the environmental, social and political impacts of the winter games. With the torch relay scheduled to barge its way through Hamilton on the 19th, the discussion will include what is taking place locally to resist the environmental destruction, gentrification, and colonization this year's Olympics represent. Everyone welcome! Free event!

The screening will be on December 9th at 7pm at the Skydragon Centre (27 King William St).
