 at our youngest audience members.\nThis screening will include (other film
 s to be added):\nAsthma Tech\n2006\, Jonathan Ng\, Canada\, 7 min\nFilmmak
 er Jonathan Ng turns the notion of &ldquo\;otherness&rdquo\; on its head i
 n his animation film\, Asthma Tech. In this semi-autobiographical whimsy\,
  young Winston is burdened by the hardships of chronic asthma and isn't ab
 le to participate in the everyday activities of his peers and classmates. 
 Winston copes with the predicament through his vivid imagination and with 
 paper and crayons\, and on one particularly rainy afternoon his talents an
 d skills save the day. Winston discovers that the magic of imagination has
  the power to bridge\, transform and empower.\nThe Girl Who Hated Books\n2
 006\, Jo Meuris\, Canada\, 7 min\nMeena\, whose name means &ldquo\;fish&rd
 quo\; in Sanskrit\, does not like to read. In fact\, she hates (yes\, hate
 s) anything to do with books and reading. Which worries her parents\, who 
 love (yes\, love) books\, to the point of being able to read three at a ti
 me. One day while searching for her kitten Max\, Meena is introduced to th
 e magical worlds within books\, and nothing\, as they say\, is the same af
 ter that. Based on the book by Manjusha Pawagi.\nJaime Lo\, Small and Shy
 \n2006\, Lillian Chan\, 7:48\nJaime Lo\, a shy Chinese-Canadian girl\, obs
 erves the world around her through her drawings. When Jaime's father is se
 nt to Hong Kong for a year-long work assignment\, Jaime must use her creat
 ivity to cope with his absence. This story offers us a lighthearted glimps
 e into a common dilemma that many immigrant families face\, where one pare
 nt must work overseas in order to provide for the rest of the family back 
 home.\n&ldquo\;Mind Me Good\, Now!&rdquo\;\n2005\, Chris Cormier and Derek
  Cummings\, 8:15\nMind Me Good Now is an animated folktale about Tina and 
 Dalby. When the two children disobey their mama\, the consequences are alm
 ost tragic. However\, Tina's resourcefulness and cunning outwit the wicked
  cacoya and send them running back into their mama's forgiving arms. Autho
 r Lynette Comissiong draws her tale from generations of Trinidadian storyt
 ellers. Their stories have built-in moral values to help guide the childre
 n. Mind Me Good Now\, with its brilliant colours\, Caribbean flavour and A
 frican score\, serves up a useful lesson in bright wrappings &ndash\; mult
 icultural style.\nAge 5+. Running time: Approx. 60 min.\n\nStart time: 2:0
