It's a chance to hear about one of the good stories. 

A world-renowned film is being played in Moose Jaw Tuesday night that highlights a community in Newfoundland that proved to be a safe and welcoming place for a young Muslim boy to grow up in. 

Hosted by the Moose Jaw Multicultural Council, Community Connections Coordinator Tyler Bastedo said he's looking forward to hearing a positive story. 

"We are screening a film by Aatif Baskanderi, it's called Salaam By and it's his personal story about growing up in a small Newfoundland town as someone who didn't share the same beliefs of those in his community, didn't look like those who he grew up with but was still embraced wholeheartedly by the community," explained Bastedo.

He noted that the film itself isn't very long but there will be an exciting question and answer discussion following the feature that attendees can be a part of.

"It's a short film just under a half hour, but there will be a post-screening discussion with the filmmaker himself. He'll be visiting Moose Jaw - we're lucky enough to have him come in between his Regina and Saskatoon screenings. The whole event will take about an hour so not a whole lot of time, but the film itself has been receiving many accolades all across the world."

Bastedo said they're excited to show this unique and enlightening perspective to residents and is honoured that Baskanderi decided to make a stop here.

"A lot of the times in the news you don't hear about the success stories when things are going good, so it's always great to be able to show off those off... this is part of Aatif's creating communities of kindness to,ur so he's been going all across the country screening this film and Moose Jaw was lucky enough to be one of the cities he selected."

He also added that Moose Jaw is moving and growing in the right direction; however, we could always be working towards being even more inclusive to all cultures.
