"Community mediation is a promising new approach to conflict resolution that empowers citizens to manage their own disputes, and thereby, avoid getting bogged down in the legal system. "Story of a mediation" takes us straight to the core of this process as it unfolds during a pilot project in Longueuil. A conflict has erupted and volunteer mediators Gilles, Josette, Maurice and Diane attempt to reconcile the diametrically opposed viewpoints of the two parties involved. This film invites us to learn about community mediation, while showing the generosity of people willing to invest their time and energy to help their fellow citizens."--NFB.
