Les rives du plus grand lac tropical du monde, considéré comme le berceau de l’humanité, sont aujourd’hui le théâtre du pire cauchemar de la mondialisation.

En Tanzanie, dans les années 60, la Perche du Nil, un prédateur vorace, fût introduite dans le lac Victoria à titre d’expérience scientifique. Depuis, pratiquement toutes les populations de poissons indigènes ont été décimées. De cette catastrophe écologique est née une industrie fructueuse, puisque la chair blanche de l’énorme poisson est exportée avec succès dans tout l’hémisphère nord.

Start: 19:30

This screening is co-presented by the Centre for Native Education at Concordia.

Dawn Crey. Ramona Wilson. Daleen Kay Bosse. These are just three of the estimated 500 Aboriginal women who have gone missing or been murdered in Canada over the past thirty years. Directed by acclaimed Métis filmmaker Christine Welsh, Finding Dawn is a compelling documentary that puts a human face to this national tragedy.

Start: 19:30

Director's statement:

men rule the world and try to dominate women and their lives. violence against women has many forms – physical, psychological, economical and social. the frameworks and names that allow violence are called honor, family peace, paid sexual workers, culture...

the only chance against violence directed towards women is to change the culture of male domination – in all senses.
