In the very first installment of Our Screen, Our Country, the guys start from the bottom of the list and look at #10 - Michel Brault's haunting, neorealistic Les Ordres, a film that takes a critical look at a very troubling time in Canadian history. Jason takes us on a history lesson through Quebec politics in the 1970s, they talk about using black-and-white combined with colour film to achieve a certain tone, they analyze the ironic Pierre Trudeau quote that opens the film, Jason discusses the idea of anti-French sentiment throughout Canada and more!

Next week: we continue with #10 (yes, there are two at that number - they are tied) - a documentary called Stories We Tell.
