Gifts from the Elders: Honouring the Past for a Healthier Tomorrow - London Screening Preview!

This new film from Emmy Award-winning Ojibway filmaker, James M. Fortier and Western Geography Professor, Dr. Chantelle Richmond, follows five Anishinaabe youth on a summer research project with their Elders, whose stories guide them on a journey back to proceeding generations that lived a healthy lifestyle off of the land. Their stories chronicle the devestating impact that environment and cultural dispossession had on the flow of knowledge from Elders to youth, and ultimately the health of their people.
