Cinema Politica’s The Next 150: Documentary Futurism project seeks to usher in a new kind of filmmaking that brings actuality into conversation with speculation, realism with fantasy. Taking inspiration from Afro-futurism, Indigenous futurism, speculative fiction and non-fiction, Cinema Politica has commissioned 15 short films to inaugurate this new genre. Works created under the rubric of documentary futurism deploy filmmaking approaches and contexts associated with documentary in order to imagine, speculate and represent a “Canada” of the future.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoPlainText><span lang=EN-US><a href="https://www.facebook.com/events/528589380944639/">https://www.facebook.com/events/528589380944639/</a> <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoPlainText><span lang=EN-US><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoPlainText><span lang=EN-US>_______________________<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoPlainText><span lang=EN-US>_______________________<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoPlainText><b><span lang=EN-US style='color:#C00000'><o:p> </o:p></span></b></p><p class=MsoPlainText><b><span lang=EN-US style='color:#C00000'>Pow Wow<o:p></o:p></span></b></p><p class=MsoPlainText><span lang=EN-US>Sat.
