Show detail Hide detail

Television public affairs program with host Don McNeill. 1. Profile on Eternal Monuments Inc., a new business in Toronto which produces filmed obituaries. The owners explain the philosophy behind their lucrative business idea, and a client is shown having her obituary recorded and later viewing the film at the cemetery site. 2. Leader of the Parti québécois, René Lévesque, is interviewed by Don McNeill and Pierre Nadeau. Among the issues discussed are: federalism; Quebec separatism; French-Canadians and their role in Canadian politics; and Lévesque's personal political career. 3. A tongue-in-cheek tribute to CBC's Nick Aufdermaur on his election to Montreal's City Council. Co-host of his television series QUELQUE SHOW, Les Nirenberg; Montreal Mayor Jean Drapeau; Montreal cartoonist Terry Mosher; and publisher Conrad Black are among those appearing on the item.~4. A documentary item on the Russian ballet-dancers Valérie and Gelina Panov and their struggle to emigrate from the Soviet Union. The film includes an interview with the Panovs and comments by compatriot Alexandr Yesenin-Volpin and Clive Barnes, "The New York Times" reporter who led the world-wide outcry that resulted in the release of the Panovs and thousands of other Russian-Jews from the Soviet Union. Noteworthy footage includes: demonstrations in Britain demanding the liberation of the Panovs and comment by Sir Laurence Olivier; scenes of a Russian prison camp; and several ballet sequences, many of which were also choreographed by Valérie Panov depicting his interpretation of Russian history. <60mn>
