Et si l'hiver ne venait plus?

How can I hear this radio show that won a Peabody yesterday?

So reading about South Park's successes at the Peabody Awards yesterday, I came across this description of a Canadian documentary that also won an award:

Year:
2005

Title:
What If Winter Never Comes? (Et si l'hiver ne venait plus?)

Producing
Organization(s):
CBC/Radio-Canada
La Premiere Chaine (French Radio Network)
City/State:

"From the frontlines of global warming, the Arctic, this report brought listeners voices of native people, the Inuit, whose way of life is literally melting away. Deftly employed ambient sound enhanced the piece's power."

Any idea where I can find/see a copy? The quickest and easiest way to screen the film is best, I'm directing a play about global warming, and think that this film could really help an actor that has been struggling to find her character. Thanks in advance!

It's not a film, it's a radio documentary from Radio Canada International.

Response by poster: alright so on a better track already, thanks macadamiaranch. Nonetheless, I can't make heads or tails of that radio schedule you link to, was this doc part of a regular series that has a different title, or its own website?

Best answer: Note that it will be in French. If that isn't an obstacle, you could contact La Premiere Chaine and probably order a copy of the broadcast. You can also inquire at their archival website.

Response by poster: French isn't a problem, so I emailed La Premiere Chaine. Thanks for the help Jellicle.
