oops,
your help option was helpful - I figured out the Real Time thing, sorry to bug you...
I did watch these films at the University of Winnipeg for Water Day and enjoyed them very much. Keep up the good work!

hi,
I can't access these films as I do not have Real Player. The 'free' link only seems to lead to a purchasing site where the viewer is in fact not free. Maybe I'm missing something since the site is french? Anyway, I'd really like to watch 'Water Detectives' - can you give me any extra instruction?

Joseph,
To answer your question; yes, these films are free. Here they are.
If you cannot afford high speed internet access at home, you can check them out at several libraries and other public places. And as for 'creative employment', well, we may not be able to offer you a job, but if you have any media that you feel belongs on this site, please do let us know. citizen[at]nfb.ca
Thanks for sharing!

GentlePeople:
Are these free movie shorts or do you want us to buy them?
I am a non-profit and extreemly poor human being who barely survives on the poverty line. I cannot buy your short films.

P.P.S. I dare you to offer me creative employment. With money I will buy a water filter system. I will place energy generating rooftop panels on my house, triple pane windows and double exterior wall insulation. I will add a solar green house on my gallery. I will purchase a ZAP electric car and I will plant a garden. Without money, which is my usual state of affairs, I will ride my bicycle through the winter, open my empty fridge in search of food and use my computer to ask you gentle people if your movies are free.
