For ON DOCS, we spoke with filmmaker Henri Pardo about his doc "Dear Jackie". Narrated as a letter to baseball great Jackie Robinson, the film chronicles his time playing in Montreal and the Black community's history in that city.

Jackie Robinson’s arrival in MTL in 1946 symbolized tolerance in Canadian society—a myth that masked deep racial inequalities taking place at that time.
