- Abstract
- The National Film Board of Canada (NFB) is an institution profoundly woven into the fabric of Canadian culture. The documentaries they produced not only influenced cinematic language, but their stunning portrayals of the landscape has shaped our perception of the environment and our place in it. Screening Nature and Nation examines how Canadians have engaged with these films and how the depictions of the land and its people have reflected the prevailing attitudes of the times.-- Provided by publisher.
