# Event Details

- **Event Name**: Film and Talk back: The Irish and First Nations
- **Event Start and End Date**: Mon, 16 Mar, 2026 at 07:00 pm
- **Event Description**: Join us for a screening of TG4's (Teilifís na Gaeilge, the Irish-language public television channel in Ireland) documentary, Éire agus Na Chéad Náisiúin (Ireland and the First Nations).   This film delves into the intricate and often conflicting roles that Irish settlers played in Native American history, covering trade and war, alliances and betrayal. Drawing on insights from renowned Irish historians and notable First Nations representatives, the documentary highlights how Irish emigrants were both the oppressed and the oppressors.  

Following the showing, there will be a talk back with respected Mohawk Elder, Tom Porter of the Mohawk Community of Kanatsiohareke, who is featured in the film.

This event is PWYC (Pay-What-You-Can), and we encourage a $20 minimum.

Bar and concessions will be available for purchase.  Water is available via the water filling station in the lobby, and bringing a refillable water bottle is encouraged.

Parking on weekends and weekday evenings starting at 5:00 PM is available in the parking lot for the Region of Waterloo building next to the theatre (the one with a gate at the entrance). Please note that the gate lowers at 11:00 PM, but cars inside the lot can still exit by driving slowly toward the gate, which will raise.

Free street parking can often be found down Spetz and Scott streets directly across from the theatre, and paid parking is available both across the street, underground at the Kitchener Public Library – Main Branch, and in the parking garage on Duke Street. While the theatre does have its own laneway, this area is reserved for theatre personnel, artists, and renters.
