Film festival director Bill MacPherson says they’ve selected 19 diverse, issue-oriented, and entertaining films that will be shown at The Grand Theatre from Feb. 22-26
A uniquely Sault Ste. Marie film festival is coming back to The Grand Theatre after two years on pause due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
“Our mission is mental health and addictions,” he says. “We try to look at reducing the stigma and normalizing people who may have addiction issues and see that they are people first.” A local Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder group will be holding a panel discussion after the movie The Hidden Disability is shown on Thursday, the HIV & AIDS Resource Program will have a presentation following the film After Louie on Friday, and Algoma Public Health is facilitating a film on Saturday morning called Love in the Time of Fentanyl.
“We also have a shorts program that’s going to be presented by the Sault Film Festival about filmmakers from northern Ontario.”
