Summary |
In this beautiful and highly personal experimental documentary, Helen Haig-Brown unravels the ways in which her own painful childhood is directly connected to her mother's residential school experiences. The intergenerational effects of this devastating system on Helen's family resulted in deeply ingrained beliefs about being unworthy of love. Through an evocative blend of animation and live action, the filmmaker shares her story of pain, anger and forgiveness that ultimately leads to hope and healing.
