Bones of Crows Film Screening
September 30 @ 2:00 PM - 4:15 PM
Join us for this special afternoon film presentation to mark National Day of Truth and Reconciliation. Bones of Crows is told through the eyes of Cree Matriarch Aline Spears, who after surviving a childhood in Canada’s residential school system, uses her uncanny ability to understand and translate codes into working for a special division of the Canadian Air Force as a Cree code talker in World War II. The story unfolds over 100 years with a cumulative force that propels us into the future.
Its authentic representation of Indigenous experiences, combined with its educational and emotional impact, aligns well with the day’s objectives of promoting understanding, respect, and reconciliation.
