As the Chair of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission, Senator Murray Sinclair was a key figure in raising global awareness of the atrocities of Canada’s residential school system.
With determination, wisdom and kindness, Senator Sinclair remains steadfast in his belief that the path to actual reconciliation between Indigenous and non- Indigenous people requires understanding and accepting often difficult truths about Canada’s past and present.
In a rural East Coast trailer park, two-spirit Mi’kmaw teenager Link (Lewitski) lives with his toxic father (Hynes) and younger half brother, Travis (Winters- Anthony). When Link discovers his mother could still be alive, it lights a flame as the siblings embark on a quest for a better life.
On the road, they meet Pasmay (Odjick), a pow wow dancer drawn to Link. As the boys journey across Mi'kma'ki, Link finds community, identity and love in the land where he belongs.
A collection of short films on Indigenous culture, identity and reconciliation.
