A screening to celebrate the legacy of Paul Pope — one of the key builders of the film and TV industry in Newfoundland and Labrador.
For more than 40 years, Paul Pope led with kindness and passion. As a producer, Pope worked on hundreds of films and shows, and owned Pope Productions, the company behind productions like Hudson & Rex, Grown Up Movie Star, Rare Birds, and Life with Derek. He was a passionate advocate for independent Canadian media, and served as a founding member of NIFCO (Newfoundland Independent Filmmakers Cooperative) as well as a board member of the Canadian Media Producers Association and vice-chair of the Canadian Media Fund.
Paul passed away in April of 2022 after a short illness.
