“The past is never dead. It’s not even past.” – William Faulkner

In community archives across British Columbia, local knowledge keepers are hand-fashioning a more inclusive history through family photos, newspaper articles and scratchy old VHS tapes. These different collections tell stories of people building connection through work, play, protest, family and tradition. Through a collage of personal interviews, archival footage and deeply rooted memories, the past, present and future come together, fighting for a space where everyone is seen and everyone belongs. History is what we all make of it.

View excerpts of this award-winning film and find out more about it from the National Film Board of Canada.
