Description 1 online resource (1 video file, 16 min.) Summary How People Got Fire centres on Grandma Kay (based on elder Kitty Smith) and the connection she forges with the village children through the oral tradition of their culture. Twelve-year-old Tish is one of those children - an introspective, talented girl who feels particularly drawn to Grandma Kay's kitchen. Here, past and present blend, myth and reality meet, and the metaphor of fire infuses all in a location that lies at the heart of the community's spiritual and cultural memory Event Originally produced by National Film Board of Canada in 2008 Notes Originally produced aMontreal, Quebec, National Film Board of Canada, c2008 Subject Cultural animation -- Canada Computer animation.
