The NFB: A Proud Player in the Cultural Olympiad
Bringing film into the digital age, Canada’s public producer is a major collaborator in the Canada CODE project - an online scrapbook of the place we call home.
As we count down to Vancouver 2010, all Canadians can contribute to this national self-portrait. Some of the country’s most inspired storytellers provide useful tips on getting started on the Canada CODE website. And the NFB is hosting digital storytelling workshops across Canada. A selection of your remixes will be shown on big screens at the games and online around the world.
Also watch Films for Change - a new collection of environmental films for schools and communities.
During the Winter Games, the NFB will be hosting public screenings in Vancouver and elsewhere. And our online Screening Room will feature special Olympic programming. Watch this site for news and updates.
