This emotional and thought-provoking film takes viewers into the heart of the Canadian disability movement in Manitoba, exploring the legacy of institutionalization and the closing of the Manitoba Developmental Centre in 2024. It’s a story of resilience, advocacy, and the continuing fight for inclusion and human rights. These Four Walls is a powerful story of resilience and advocacy, tracing the lives and experiences of people once institutionalized, and the collective fight for dignity and inclusion in Canada.
