the smallest steps

Four budding activists battle personal and political barriers to find their voice in the Canadian anti-violence movement.

 

This project was filmed on unceded Algonquin territory. It was completed in May 2022 and has since been screened in several festivals, communities, and classrooms. The film is also being used as a teaching tool in classes on Law, Social Sciences, Feminist Studies, and Literature.
