No Small Change: The Story of the Eaton's Strike
Overview
A documentary about how a motley band of – mostly female- retail workers took on a retail giant – Canada’s Timothy Eaton Company. In the tradition of socialist and feminist filmmaking of the day, we immersed ourselves in these women’s lives as they fought for a first contract, hanging out with strikers on the picket line, at union meetings and in their homes.

Woman of Courage - Louisa Ighilahriz
The autobiographical account of the tormented life of a witness of the century: Louisa Ighilahriz, activist and leading figure in Algerian independence. A student, she joined the independence struggle at the age of 20, joining the ranks of the FLN on the eve of the Battle of Algiers in late 1956 under the name Lila. She took part in the high school students' strike, then fled into the maquis when she was actively sought after. She was part of the French FLN support network of "suitcase carriers" during the Battle of Algiers. Seriously wounded alongside her network leader, Saïd Bakel, during an ambush in 1957, hospitalized and then imprisoned, she suffered numerous tortures in French prisons. She will be saved from certain death by an anonymous person, she will seek, for forty years, to find him just to show him her gratitude... Emblematic of the painful Franco-Algerian history, Louisa's story is poignant and imbued with humanism.
