WHERE TO WATCH

Telling Our Story

Synopsis:

11 First Peoples whose homelands now host Quebec and beyond (Labrador, New-Brunswick, Ontario, Maine) tell us who they are: their worldview, their connection to the Land, their spirituality, their millennial stories, their wounds and hopes. After centuries of colonial measures aimed at “killing the Indian in every child,” after parking us on reserves and stripping us of our culture and our spirituality by forcibly sending us to residential schools, Telling Our Story is a celebration of our resistance, our resilience and our revival.
