The PIE Film Program was an online workshop that brought together students from the Partners in Education program across BC, to produce short video poems that explore local issues and personal stories. These video portraits of BC students are told in their authentic, fun-loving, and fierce voices. Enjoy.

In our work we strive to embody what we hope to see in the world—a just humanity and community in which people are free to be themselves fully and without fear. A community where no one is exiled or silenced because of gender, gender expression, race, color, ethnic or national origin, religion, sexual/affectional orientation, age, class, physical character or disability. We believe in the power of storytelling to make connections across difference.

Made possible by:

This program took place in BC communities on the traditional & unceded Coast Salish territories of the Klahoose, ɬaʔamɩn gɩǰɛ (Tla'amin/Sliammon), Homalco, K’ómoks, We Wai Kum, and We Wai Kai Nations.

We are humbly grateful to gather here, and we pay our respect to the Elders, Indigenous leaders, and youth.
