SUMMARY:Capital Ukrainian Festival - Free Film Night
DESCRIPTION:The Capital Ukrainian Festival Kicks off its 4-Day Festival with a Free Evening of Films \nCircle Thursday\, July 21\, 2016 for a free evening of award winning films showcasing Ukrainian-Canadian culture and history.  Designed to appeal to a variety of audiences\, genres include: comedy\, sports\, politics and drama. \nIn “Laughter in my Soul” (5:30pm)\, the cartoon character\, “Shteef Tabachniuk\, takes us through the first wave of Ukrainian immigration to western Canada. A film by award-winning director and producer\, Halya Kuchmij\, this film promises laughter for the entire family. \nAttention all hockey fans!  Danny Schur takes us on a journey through the life and accomplishments of “the world’s greatest goalie” – Ukrainian-Canadian Terry Sawchuk\, in “Made in Winnipeg: The Terry Sawchuk Origin Story” (6:30pm).  This decorated player revolutionized goalkeeping\, serving as an inspiration for all future goalies\, with his legendary accomplishments immortalized in the Hockey Hall of Fame. A “must-see” for hockey fans of all ages! \n“A Man for All Canadians” (7:00 pm) features the life and work of The Right Honourable Raymond Hnatyshyn\, the 24th Governor General of Canada\, as seen through the eyes of his family and friends\, including former prime ministers Joe Clark\, Brian Mulroney\, and Canadian broadcaster Peter Mansbridge. Executive producer\, Iryna Korpan\, provides an intimate look into the life and accomplishments of this iconic Canadian. \nThe evening ends with Ukraine’s 2014 Academy Award entry for Best Foreign Language Film\, “The Guide” (8:30pm). In this critically acclaimed drama\, viewers journey with a young boy from the 1930s whose father was killed by the Soviets for obtaining documents about the repressions.  Befriended by a blind Ukrainian folk minstrel (kobzar)\, the young boy learns to survive his early tragedies through the magical and healing powers of storytelling and folklore. Their journey builds to a chillingly spectacular conclusion\, challenging viewers to examine whether the blind kobzar may see the world with greater clarity than those with perfect vision. \nAll films will be shown on a large LED screen under a tent on Festival Grounds (952 Green Valley Crescent\, Ottawa\, ON).  Food\, drinks and snacks will be available for purchase. Admission and parking are free.  Free-will donations are gratefully accepted.   \nFor more information\, please see:\nhttp://capitalukrainianfestival.com/film-night.html
