In this personal documentary, the declining use of the Algonquin language and the lingering effects of residential schools are addressed through views of four generations of family. Produced with the assistance of Wapikoni mobile, Kevin Papatie’s film brings much-needed attention to policies and inequalities that have shaped our history.
