Each evening will feature special guest observations on the themes or production of the film.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"preFade fadeIn\">Profits from this series will be used to support the Jaimie Anderson Parliamentary Internship and Scholarships at the Carleton University Graduate Program in Political Management. Our goal is to support young Canadians who are eager to get involved in public life, equipping them with the tools, experience, and networks they need to make a meaningful impact.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"preFade fadeIn\">Whether you&#8217;re a politico, wonk, or just love a good story, <a href=\"https:\/\/reelpolitics.ca\/\"><strong>REEL Politics<\/strong><\/a> invites you to join us for eight nights that will entertain, inform, and (hopefully) inspire. Come for the movie (and the free popcorn!), and help encourage young people and stimulating conversations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"preFade fadeIn\"><strong>REEL Politics<\/strong> is organized by local volunteers including Mollie Anderson, Jennifer Robson, Robert Fontaine, Kathleen Davis, Isobel Haddow, Samantha Wilkie, Erica Martin, Chris Schlesak and Bruce Anderson. We are grateful for support from a diverse group of generous sponsors, and help in promotion from National Newswatch, Politico, Hill Times and Spark Advocacy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"240\" height=\"40\" src=\"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/politicalmanagement\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/233\/Reel-Politics-Banner-240x40.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-6383\" srcset=\"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/politicalmanagement\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/233\/Reel-Politics-Banner-240x40.png 240w, https:\/\/carleton.ca\/politicalmanagement\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/233\/Reel-Politics-Banner-160x27.png 160w, https:\/\/carleton.ca\/politicalmanagement\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/233\/Reel-Politics-Banner-768x129.png 768w, https:\/\/carleton.ca\/politicalmanagement\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/233\/Reel-Politics-Banner-400x67.png 400w, https:\/\/carleton.ca\/politicalmanagement\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/233\/Reel-Politics-Banner-1536x258.png 1536w, https:\/\/carleton.ca\/politicalmanagement\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/233\/Reel-Politics-Banner-360x60.png 360w, https:\/\/carleton.ca\/politicalmanagement\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/233\/Reel-Politics-Banner.png 1928w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 240px) 100vw, 240px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":"","_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"cu_event_type":[46],"cu_event_audience":[8],"class_list":["post-6768","cu_event","type-cu_event","status-publish","hentry","cu_event_type-upcoming-events","cu_event_audience-anyone"],"acf":{"cu_event_start_date":"2026-05-07T18:00:00","cu_event_end_date":"2026-05-07T21:00:00","cu_event_location_type":"in-person","cu_event_meeting_address_type":"on-campus","cu_building":false,"cu_event_meeting_room":"","cu_event_meeting_address_full":null,"cu_event_virtual_type":"tbd","cu_event_virtual_meeting_link":"","cu_post_thumbnail":false,"cu_event_cost":"$10 per show, or $50 for all 8 screenings","cu_event_registration":"","cu_event_secondary_button":"","cu_event_contact_name":"","cu_event_email":"","cu_event_phone":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/politicalmanagement\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/cu_event\/6768","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/politicalmanagement\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/cu_event"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/politicalmanagement\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/cu_event"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/politicalmanagement\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/politicalmanagement\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/cu_event\/6768\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":6769,"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/politicalmanagement\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/cu_event\/6768\/revisions\/6769"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/politicalmanagement\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=6768"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"cu_event_type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/politicalmanagement\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/cu_event_type?post=6768"},{"taxonomy":"cu_event_audience","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/politicalmanagement\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/cu_event_audience?post=6768"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
