Engineers Without Borders Vancouver – Film Night

Engineers Without Borders (Vancouver) present: June Film Night featuring: “Yesterday” written and directed by Darrell Roodt

About the Film:
Yesterday tells the story of a poor, young HIV-positive mother struggling to raise her daughter alone in a desolate landscape, while coming to terms with her imminent death from AIDS.

The beautifully-shot drama is set in the rolling hills of Zululand in the eastern KwaZulu-Natal province in South Africa – a picturesque but harsh territory – and is the first international film made in the local Zulu language.

The Nelson Mandela Foundation has endorsed the film as a story of courage, compassion and hope, and as a resource for use across it’s Social Development Programme in it’s commitment to raise awareness about HIV/AIDS and highlight the need to remove stigma and discrimination.

The only film in history to be nominated both for an Academy Award and for an Emmy Award

During the Canada Post strike announced September 25, 2025, the following measures will be undertaken to minimize service disruption to BC-CfE clients and providers.

  • The BC-CfE Laboratory has transitioned to private courier for delivery of outgoing reports and documents. Results required urgently can be faxed upon request. (Lab Contact Information: Phone 604-806-8775; FAX 604-806-9463)
  • The BC-CfE Drug Treatment Program (DTP) will fax outgoing forms and documents to the provider’s office. (DTP Contact Information: Phone 604-806-8515; FAX 604-806-9044)
  • St. Paul’s Hospital Ambulatory Pharmacy has transitioned to private courier for delivery of medications. We recommend requesting medication at least 2 weeks in advance in case of delivery delays, particularly to rural/remote parts of BC. (Contact Information: Phone 1-800-547-3622; FAX 604-806-8675)

During the Canada Post strike, we recommend that documents be faxed or couriered to our sites, versus utilization of regular mail service

The BC-CfE Laboratory is streamlining reporting processes for certain tests in order to simplify distribution and record-keeping, and to ensure completeness of results. Beginning September 2, 2025, results for the ‘Resistance Analysis of HIV-1 Protease and Reverse Transcriptase’ (Protease-RT) and ‘HIV-1 Integrase Resistance Genotype’ tests will be combined into a single ‘HIV-1 Resistance Genotype Report’.
