Details

This documentary takes you on a reflective journey into the extended family of Nova Scotia’s Mi'kmaq community. Revisiting her own roots, Mi'kmaq filmmaker and mother Catherine Anne Martin explores how the community is recovering its First Nations values, particularly through the teachings of elders and a collective approach to children-rearing. Mi'kmaq Family is an inspiring resource for both Indigenous and non-Indigenous audiences who are looking for ways to strengthen and explore their own families and traditions. We hear the Mi'kmaq language spoken and a lullaby is sung by a Mi'kmaq grandmother featured in the film.

Rijndri Load of rubbish!!
Dotbankey A lot of fun.
SteinMo What a freaking movie. So many twists and turns. Absolutely intense from start to finish.
Sameer Callahan It really made me laugh, but for some moments I was tearing up because I could relate so much.
