Movie Night - Crash is a 1996 British-Canadian psychological thriller film written and directed by David Cronenberg.
It tells the story of a group of people who take sexual pleasure from car crashes. The film stars James Spader, Deborah Kara Unger, Elias Koteas, Holly Hunter, and Rosanna Arquette.
Crash generated considerable controversy and opened to highly divergent reactions from critics. While some praised the film for its daring premise and originality, others criticized its combination of graphic sexuality with violence.

"Winnipeg's Rooster Town: Myths and Realities"

The Grant Park area wasn’t always a mecca of shopping and condos. For most of the 1900s the space between Grant Avenue and Taylor Avenue, from Wilton Street west until Lindsay Street, was a Metis community known as Rooster Town. During the 1950s the space was illegally taken and the residents forcibly removed for new immigrant homes. 

Dr. Peters is an urban social geographer who received her BA (Honours) at the University of Winnipeg and her MA and PhD at Queen’s University in Kingston. Her recent edited book with Chris Andersen, Indigenous in the City: Contemporary Identities and Cultural Innovation, focusses on urban Indigenous experiences.

Highway of Tears (Opening Night Film)
Director: Matthew Smiley

The film is about the missing or murdered women along a 724 kilometre stretch of highway in northern British Columbia. None of the 18 cold-cases had been solved since 1969, until a special division of the RCMP managed to link DNA to Portland drifter, Bobby Jack Fowler with the 1974 murder of 16 year-old hitchhiker, Collen MacMillen. Now find out what First Nation leaders are doing to try and swing the pendulum in the other direction.
