The Canadian Pavilion, Expo 67

An invitation to Canada that all will want to see and many will wish to accept, presented in impressions of Expo 67 and of Montréal, the host city, at the liveliest and most exciting moment in its history.

A visit to the "Indians of Canada" pavilion at Expo 67, Montréal. Inside there are Indigenous artifacts, but even more arresting are the printed placards that tell the story of the Indigenous peoples in North America, written without rancor but recalling what their contact with European settlers has cost in freedom of movement, in loss of land, and in loss of health of body and spirit.

Évoquant les heures merveilleuses de l'Expo 67, ce film nous invite à une halte au coeur de ces nations que nous avons abritées. Dans sa course, la caméra rejoint le minirail, visite les îles, court à La Ronde, à la Cité du Havre, envahit les pavillons, les restaurants, suit les clowns et capte la joie de la foule et l'attitude ébahie des enfants qui s'ébattent sous le soleil.
