Michelle Shephard’s heart-wrenching and provocative look at journalism, TVO Original The Perfect Story, is launching this fall with screenings in Calgary (September 24) and Toronto (October 5) ahead of a world broadcast premiere on TVO, TVO.org, YouTube and smart TV services on October 18. nfb.ca is also streaming the film for free starting November 1.

Co-produced by Frequent Flyer Films and the National Film Board of Canada (NFB), this feature documentary offers a gripping and intimate look at the ethical and moral challenges sparked by the friendship between foreign correspondent Shephard and a young Somali refugee. By revealing the boundaries of journalism and filmmaking, the documentary questions what stories are told, why, and who gets to tell them.
