Congratulations to all the Nova Scotian creatives who showcased their work at the Atlantic International Film Fest this year!

As the festival comes to a close tonight, we're reminded of why the arts are so important. It's through the arts that we tell our stories, wrestle with complex ideas, understand different perspectives, and imagine new futures together. Right now that's more important than ever. The arts must be funded.

What films did you love this year? Claudia Chender stands smiling with Ree and Meaghan Wright with their arms around each other at an indoor event.

I have always heard that adage about documentary filmmaking that the creators never really know what story they’re telling until they’re cutting all the footage together, and that was certainly the case for Ree and Meaghan Wright when they were making the film The Last Days of April, which screened Friday night as part of the Atlantic International Film Festival.

We meet April Hubbard at a time in their life when they were feeling extremely lonely and disconnected from the communities that they had spent over a decade previously cultivating in the theatre and circus in Halifax. They have been disabled from birth due to being born with the condition spina bifida, and when they were in Grade 11 they were diagnosed as also having a tethered spinal cord. They are known in their communities as being an ambulatory wheelchair user, but they are also known for their indomitable passion, energy, and advocacy. When I met April it was in their role of volunteer at the Halifax Fringe Festival, and just as I showed up everyday to see my block of shows to review them, April was there every day too- for hours. Later, as Fringe Board Chair, April wasn’t just seeing an array of Fringe shows every day, but they were going home and writing about them too. April was always a welcome voice of recommendations, and someone who spoke up, always first, about the inaccessibility she was facing, or other concerns she had about how disability was being represented (or not at all) in the shows that she was seeing. Shortly after the Covid-19 lockdowns April’s level of daily chronic pain has dramatically increased, and it’s drastically affected her ability to engage in person with all the aspects of arts, culture, and adaptive sport in the city that she loves. The film opens with April discussing coming to the choice of accessing Medical Assistance in Dying (MAiD), and looking to end her life on her own terms. Read more at the link in bio.

I feel so lucky that so many of you want to be there to celebrate all the hard work, love, and tears that went into making this film. When we started, I could not of imagined being here to witness this day with all of you, but now I am just days away from experiencing this wonderful gift. Thank you for being such a loving and supportive community!

If you really wanted to attend but don't have tickets, let me know and I will add you to my personal wait list in case I hear of any tickets that become available last-minute.

WIFT-AT is honoured to present Meaghan and Ree Wright’s documentary THE LAST DAYS OF APRIL at the @atlanticfilmfest!

An intimate and deeply moving portrait of disability, community, and self-determination, the film centres on Halifax advocate and adaptive athlete April Hubbard as she navigates the end of her life through the use of MAiD.

Approaching mortality without reducing life to illness or tragedy, THE LAST DAYS OF APRIL sustains a focus on dignity, bodily autonomy, friendship, and the community Hubbard cultivated to offer a compassionate and locally resonant reflection on what it means to live—and leave—on one’s own terms.

The Last Days of April follows April Hubbard, a disability advocate with a tethered spinal cord and chronic pain, who navigates the end of her life. April’s courageous decision to share her Medical Assistance in Dying (MAiD) journey sparks an emotional and thought-provoking narrative. Through intimate interviews and personal anecdotes, this film documents the intersection of bodily autonomy and systemic barriers, ultimately advocating for a more inclusive and compassionate world.
