Also featured in the event are "No Place But Here," a thought-provoking documentary challenging wealth inequality and gentrification, "This is Not A Ceremony," an astonishing cinematic VR experience amplifying Canada's First Nations community's oral tradition, and "Sorella's Story," a poignant reminder of the devastating impact of the Holocaust.
