Join us for an exclusive private screening of Meadowlarks, the stunning scripted debut from award-winning filmmaker and University of Alberta Associate Professor, Dr. Tasha Hubbard.

Fresh from its award-winning run at TIFF and VIFF, Meadowlarks follows four siblings separated by the Sixties Scoop as they reunite for one week in the mountains of Banff. What begins as awkward small talk and forced bonding evolves into a powerful, poignant exploration of kinship, resilience, and the complex journey of finding one’s way home.
