The Leadership Development and Social Change class invites you to participate in a
recently released, locally produced documentary on small scale farming.

Have you ever thought of making your own film or documentary? Come and hear
two young women from Tatamagouche share their film and their story.
Title: Where the Waters Meet: Sacred Connections within Community.

The film will be shown Wednesday, November 28 at 12:00-12:50 - Rural Research Centre. The Directors: Shaani and Kaia Singh will attend and discuss their experiences and ideas for others thinking of doing a documentary.

This film celebrates the commonalities of two rural communities - one in Nova Scotia (Tatamagouche) and one in India, (Sariya).  The two villages are shaped around the values of small scale farming - one community trying to hold on to traditional ways, while the other is trying to return to them. The filmmakers are two young women from Colchester County, NS, who are visiting their ancestral home for the first time.
