The final screening of UNB Saint John’s Lorenzo Indigenous Film Festival will feature Dawnland.

DAWNLAND (2018, 1 h 26 mins)

For decades, child welfare authorities have been removing Native American children from their homes to “save them from being Indian.” In Maine, the first official Truth and Reconciliation Commission in the United States begins a historic investigation. Dawnland goes behind-the-scenes as this historic body grapples with difficult truths, redefines reconciliation, and charts a new course for state and tribal relations.

All are welcome to attend.

Building: Saint John Free Public Library at 1 Market Square
