Cool Black North

Directed by Alison Duke
Canada, 2019 (documentary, 88 minutes, colour, English)

Film Description:
"Cool Black North explores the unique and vibrant Canadian Black Community and its role in our country's contemporary identity. Through a series of intimate profiles, we are witness to a wide spectrum of life experiences, including the arts, entertainment, law, business, science and social activism. Though each person's pathway to success is unique, they all share a common purpose and strength in overcoming often racially-based obstacles to succeed at the highest levels in their respective fields. Most importantly it's their commitment to helping others and giving back to their communities that has earned them the recognition of the Harry Jerome Awards—these incredible people paint a diverse and compelling portrait of excellence in the documentary Cool Black North."
