Free Film Screenings for the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation
Saturday, September 30
at Sainte-Marie Among the Hurons
Join MPL and Sainte-Marie Among the Hurons for two screenings of the film Indian Horse. Based on Richard Wagamese’s poetic and heartwrenching novel, the film follows Saul Indian Horse as he is torn from his Ojibway family and taken to one of Canada’s notorious Catholic residential schools. Despite the oppression, abuse and indignity he suffers there, Saul finds salvation in the unlikeliest of places and favourite Canadian pastime: hockey. Film rated 14A. Visit their website to get all of the details. Our thanks to the Culture Alliance in the Heart of Georgian Bay for sponsoring the film license.
