In this layered short film, filmmaker Janine Windolph takes her young sons fishing with their kokum (grandmother), a residential school survivor who retains a deep knowledge and memory of the land. The act of reconnecting with their homeland is a cultural and familial healing journey for the boys, who are growing up in the city. It’s also a powerful form of resistance for the women.

Gurlyndrobb While it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.
Catangro After playing with our expectations, this turns out to be a very different sort of film.
Edwin The storyline feels a little thin and moth-eaten in parts but this sequel is plenty of fun.
Cheryl A clunky actioner with a handful of cool moments.
