The Best Damn Fiddler from Calabogie to Kaladar
"The Best Damn Fiddler from Calabogie to Kaladar" tells the story of Emery Prometer, a proud bush worker in Ottawa Valley, resisting government aid to support his family. The film compassionately depicts their struggles and the resolve of Emery's daughter, Rosie, (Margot Kidder in her film debut) to break the cycle of poverty through education. This '60s NFB standout authentically portrays their dignity amid hardship, showcasing Canadian filmmaking despite hurdles from private broadcasters' cost concerns. The Best Damn Fiddler from Calabogie to Kaladar won eight Canadian Film Awards, including Best Picture (John Kemeny, Barrie Howells), Director (Peter Pearson), Cinematography (Tony Ianzelo), Screenplay (Joan Finnegan) and Lead Actor (Chris Wiggins).

Stop the World: I Want to Get Off
The Anthony Newley/Leslie Bricusse London and Broadway musical hit Stop the World, I Want to Get Off is given literal treatment in this filmization. Newley stars as Littlechap, whose allegorical rise to success is countered by the instability of his private life. Like the play, the film is staged impressionistically, with Newley decked out in mime makeup and periodically stopping the action to address the audience, and with all the women in his life -- German, American and "Typically English" -- played by a single actress (Millicent Martin, taking over from the stage version's Anna Quayle). In Wizard of Oz fashion, the play itself is lensed in color, while the brief prologue, showing the actors preparing for their performance, is in black-and-white. The production includes such standards (and perennial audition pieces) as What Kind of Fool Am I? and Gonna Build a Mountain.

Armstrong – The adventurous journey of a mouse to the moon
When the night is clear, the inquisitive mouse Armstrong can look at the moon from her attic through a telescope: white and round and unreachable. "The moon is made of cheese!" claim the other mice and do not want to know about Armstrong's theory. So he makes a plan to prove that the moon is made of rock, just like the Earth. He will fly there and get a chunk! But how is that supposed to work? A mouse in space ... Fortunately, Armstrong gets help and thus takes on the legacy of the mouse flight pioneers. He constructs a rocket to take him to the moon and back. After weeks of experiments, experiments and failures that cost Armstrong everything - even his beloved attic and the valuable telescope - the time has finally come: the rocket takes off. According to the picture book by Torben Kuhlmann, "Armstrong" describes how a furry, four-legged inventor succeeds in the impossible. A small step for the mouse, but a big step for humanity, which is already on its heels.
