In 2021, evidence of unmarked graves was discovered on the grounds of an Indian residential school run by the Catholic Church in Canada. After years of silence, the forced separation, assimilation and abuse many children experienced at these segregated boarding schools was brought to light, sparking a national outcry against a system designed to destroy Indigenous communities.
A stunning tribute to the resilience of Native people and their way of life, Sugarcane, the debut feature documentary from Emily Kassie and Julian Brave NoiseCat, is an epic cinematic portrait of a community during a moment of international reckoning.
