After Candace

After Candace is a full-length documentary that follows the healing journey of Cliff and Wilma Derksen, who are survivors of their daughter’s homicide. The film was shot on location in Winnipeg, Canada, using art pieces created by Cliff that were strategically placed around the city in areas of significance to their story. With funding from the Algonquin College Innovation Fund (ACIF), workshop materials were created so that this film could be included in Algonquin curricula, shared with service providers, and screened at events such as the Justice Department’s Victims and Survivors of Crime Week. A film discussion guide with embedded links to the film itself is available in both French and English:
