The Anniversary Project explores the lives of 20 different Canadian children living below the poverty line. Nance Ackerman, who previously collaborated with Stitch Media as a writer for Redress Remix, is the director of this meaningful project. Her NFB-produced film Four Feet Up offers an intimate portrait of a child and his family’s struggle with poverty and serves as the inspiration for The Anniversary Project. Both the film and The Anniversary Project launched on the 20 year anniversary of the Canadian government’s promise to end child poverty.

Combining stunning photography, powerful music, and stop motion portraits, The Anniversary Project beautifully explores the lives of 20 children, allowing their voices to be heard as they share their experiences with poverty. The multifaceted project also provides resources for those facing similar struggles or who wish to help.
