Synopsis
Filmed over more than six years, this feature-length documentary follows the journeys of three groups of children from different Indigenous nations (Atikamekw, Eeyou Cree, and Innu). In following these young people through the crucial milestones of childhood, right to the threshold of adulthood, we witness their daily lives and aspirations, along with the challenges they face. Filmed from “a child’s eye-view” and presenting a groundbreaking vision of contemporary Indigenous youth, this documentary is notable for the complete absence of adult voices and “experts on young people”—holding space instead for a new generation with a burning desire to be heard.
