SUMMARY:George Cotter Retrospective
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a celebration of George Cotter’s career with a free viewing of some of his movies. \nTrail blazing Manitoba nature filmmaker George Cotter (1915-2011) had a remarkable film career that spanned four decades. Cotter hauled his Bolex camera across the province to patiently gather remarkable footage of wildlife and nature in every season. He was a pioneer in promoting conservation and being a good steward of nature. \nCotter emerged during an era where most other celebrated nature filmmakers like David Attenborough\, Jacques Cousteau\, or Marlin Perkins were more interested in exotic wildlife and locales faraway—Cotter was interested in what he was observing here at home. His straight-talking commentary about plants\, wildlife behaviour\, and outdoor education meant his 16mm film prints were a staple for classrooms\, clubs\, and community screenings across the province. \nThese films range from a more objective and expositional tone\, to the more personal—even sincere and folky—rooted in Cotter’s experiences that we observe with him while watching. Cotter took as his slogan the Latin Dum Spiro Spero\, “While I breath\, I hope” which is still a reminder of the work needed to preserve and protect our natural world. \nCOTTER SHORTS — PROGRAM TWO\nLength: 66 min\nDum Spiro Spero—While I Breathe\, I hope (6min)\n2026 Directed by Kevin Nikkel\nA portrait of George Cotter’s career as a ground breaking Manitoba nature filmmaker.\nPrairie Giant (21 min)\nThe life story of the giant Canada goose.
