Anecdotes

Hunt for Justice, also known as Hunt for Justice: The Louise Arbour Story, is a television film, directed by Charles Binamé and released in 2005. A co-production of companies from Canada and Germany, the film stars Wendy Crewson as Louise Arbour, the Canadian human rights lawyer turned Supreme Court of Canada justice, as she fights, in her capacity as chief prosecutor for the International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia in the late 1990s, to secure an indictment of Yugoslavian president Slobodan Milošević on war crimes charges.

Production and distribution

Shot in 2004, the film premiered theatrically at the 2005 Festival International de Films de Montréal, and received special screenings in Ottawa in October, and at the United Nations in December.

It was planned for broadcast on CTV in the 2005–06 season, but had not yet had a confirmed broadcast date as of Milošević's death on March 11, 2006, which prompted the network to schedule its broadcast for March 25 that year.
