This event is in the past

National Canadian Film Day is a coast-to-coast celebration of Canadian cinema. Join us for a screening of the documentary “Any Other Way: The Jackie Shane Story” (2024).

Jackie Shane, a jazz singer who rose to prominence in the 1960s as a Black transgender musician, had disappeared almost entirely from the public eye. Decades later, her work gets rediscovered and reassessed, giving her one last chance to be appreciated properly.

A moving portrait that shines a light on the career of a trailblazer who was ahead of her time, this incredible story won the Special Jury Prize for Best Canadian Feature at Hot Docs 2024.

Directed by Michael Mabbott and Lucah Rosenberg-Lee.

Run time: 98 minutes.

This film is not rated.

Presented in partnership with Reel Canada.
