"One Drum, Many Voices" CONTEST from NFB for students
From http://www.nfb.ca/enclasse/doclens/visau/contest/en
One Drum, Many Hearts Contest - A contest for Canadian High School Students from the National Film Board (NFB) and their sponsors
DEADLINE: February 22, 2007
If you haven't had a chance to visit the fascinating world of ABORIGINAL PERSPECTIVES, now's a great time! Until February 22, you can enter the One Drum, Many Hearts Contest and win great PRIZES!
Four simple questions, one mini-essay on what's special about your community. That may be all there is between you and a new computer, an iPod, or a trip with friends and family to Edmonton for the Aboriginal Achievement Awards and Gala presentation March 16, 2007!
Have you ever watched the building of an igloo? The making of mukluks? The ritual drumming and dance of sacred ceremonies? Have you seen the arrival of Jacques Cartier through the eyes of the Cree? Or the coming of black-robed Jesuits from a Huron-Wendat perspective?
ABORIGINAL PERSECTIVES offers a treasure trove of film excerpts, short fiction and interviews, arranged by theme. Take a trip through the site. Hear the drums. And share your heart and voice with us, for a chance to win!
Prizes will be awarded to the 10 best works in two age categories:
- 15 years of age and under
- 16 years of age and over
