The Marda Loop Justice Film Festival Annually occurs near Calgary's Marda Loop Area. The plans for the festival started in 2005 and the first festival is to be held on November 17-19 2006. A group of volunteers is organizing the festival which is comprised of members of the community, members of SPAN (Sustainable Practises Action Network) and members of First Christian Reformed Church. The Festival is to be held in the First Christian Reformed Church Auditorium.

[edit] Purpose

The people bringing the Marda Loop Justice Film Festival to the community of Marda Loop and greater Calgary are volunteers who care about all people and the world in which we live. We hope to offer an annual festival, to:

foster awareness and understanding of injustices and indignities suffered by some in this world; they are our neighbours
encourage participants to take steps of care and actions that seek justice
offer opportunity to talk about views of the world, essential questions, and what is needed for it to be a place of hope and goodness
