Through A Blue Lens
Toby Hinton films Nicola Keate in Unity House in 2000. Nicola’s treatment helped her stay clean for a few years.
Through A Blue Lens was completed and broadcast nationally on CBC in December 1999. Six years later, this video is still the number one drug education film in Canadian public schools and many other institutions worldwide. It has won national and international awards, it has been profiled by ABC’s
20/20 and Australia’s
60 Minutes programs, and the project was featured in the New York Times, MacLean’s Magazine and a multitude of other printed media. Odd Squad Productions then assisted the NFB in producing another award-winning documentary,
Flipping The World. This video was also broadcast nationally, and has gone on to become an integral part of drug education programs in schools throughout British Columbia and across Canada.
