People First | 2007 | Canada | Documentary

Produced and coordinated by Josee Boulanger | Created by Mark Blanchette, Josée Boulanger, Kevin Johnson, Susie Weiszmann, David Weremy and Valerie Wolber

Documenting The Freedom Tour, inspired by the Manitoba government’s decision to invest 40 million dollars into the Manitoba Developmental Centre (MDC), an institution where about 350 people labelled with an intellectual disability are still being warehoused, People First members interview institution survivors, family members and other wanting to speak out.

Representatives from People First will introduce the screening and take questions from the audience.
