10/23/2016 Documentary Premiere: The Bishop Who Ate His Boots Downtown $10 - $19


City of Toronto All Events http://ift.tt/2daYg6o Join us for the premiere of this extraordinary documentary about the work of Bishop Isaac Stringer, an Anglican missionary who was stationed in the Arctic in the early 20th century as filmed by his grandson cinematographer Richard Stringer. A labour of love and a personal quest to learn more about his grandfather, Stringer documented the Bishop's treacherous journey to the north and his efforts to convert the Inuit to Christianity. Family friend Gail Singer will be on hand to introduce the film and a tour of "Art & Innovation: Traditional Arctic Footwear from the BSM Collection" will complete the afternoon.
