Justice4Reel is a curated, public film and arts festival scheduled for June 26–28, 2026, at the Ortona Arts Hub in Edmonton. Designed to bridge the gap between abstract human rights and our lived local realities in the heart of Alberta, this three-day journey fosters reflection, shared dialogue, and coordinated civic action.
By using documentary film as a catalyst, Justice4Reel moves beyond interpersonal perspectives to examine the structural challenges shaping our province. It serves as a civic laboratory where the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms is transformed from a legal document into a tangible tool for community dignity and accountability.
