When a mass unmarked gravesite is uncovered at the site of a Catholic church-run “Indian residential school” in British Columbia, the people of the Williams Lake First Nations face a public confrontation of past horrors. Filmmakers Julian Brave NoiseCat and Emily Kassie follow community members dedicated to surfacing the truth in this powerful and beautifully complex documentary about reckoning with state violence. Winner of the Directing Award at this year’s Sundance Film Festival.

Featuring a in-person Q&A with co-director Emily Kassie moderated by the host of KUT’s All Things Considered, Jerry Quijano.
