Description

Located in Brantford, Ontario, the Mohawk Institute was Canada’s first and longest-running “Indian Residential School,” operated by the Canadian Government and the Anglican Church, housing approximately 15,000 Indigenous children for 140 years. The tracking, luring, and kidnapping of children spanned more than 60 communities and four provinces. From victims to survivors to activists, the documentary is a story of resistance, resilience and healing told personally and for all the thousands of children who never could.
