Description:
“Sugarcane” is a powerful documentary that delves into the harrowing legacy of the Canadian Indian residential school system. Directed by Julian Brave NoiseCat and Emily Kassie, the film follows an investigation into the abuse and missing children linked to these institutions, sparking a profound reckoning within the Williams Lake First Nation. “Sugarcane” is both a deeply personal examination of intergenerational trauma and a broader critique of systemic oppression, offering no easy answers but demanding that the truth be faced. This film is a compelling testament to the resilience of Indigenous communities as they navigate the painful process of healing and reclamation.
