THE GRIZZLIES
Canada, 2018. Directed by Miranda de Pencier. 97 min. PG The Grizzlies is based on the inspiring true story of the youth of Kugluktuk, Nunavut who were transformed by the sport of lacrosse, family, tradition, and community, and in turn, transformed their town with the highest suicide rate in all of North America into a model of hope and youth-led resilience. The Grizzlies is more than the usual triumph through sports movie - it is a true story about a group of Inuit students who changed their teacher and eventually their whole community for the better. Driven by remarkable performances by the young, Nunavut -based cast, and seeded with unassailable authenticity because of it’s dramatic location, The Grizzlies proves to be
one of the most unexpectedly affirming films of the year! Winner of the Outstanding Directorial Achievement Award by the Directors Guild of Canada and official selection of TIFF Top Ten Canadian Films this year! “Story with authenticity and heart, and that makes all the difference. It scores.” - Norman Wilner, NOW Magazine
