Fourth Annual Native Women and Film Festival

On January 29 the Women’s and Gender Studies Program at the University of Manitoba will host the fourth annual Native Women and Film, an event that brings women filmmakers to the U of M to screen and discuss their work.

The event is generously supported by the Margaret Laurence Endowment Fund.
