There is a man with two graves, and generations of children with none. Investigating a statue of Christopher Columbus, and the American Residential Schools that forcibly imprisoned indigenous children. Their bodies were hidden along with their traditions and language. Weaving stories from the land, the colonizer, and the struggle to fight back, this is a plea for justice.
Director
