Enjoy a screening of Indian Horse (2017), directed by Stephen S. Campanelli, which explores the journey of a young Indigenous boy and his struggles within Canada’s residential school system.

Saul Indian Horse, an Ojibway boy, is torn from his family and committed to a residential school. At the school, Saul is denied the freedom to speak his language or embrace his heritage and is a witness to abuse by the people sworn to protect him. But Saul finds salvation in the unlikeliest of places—the rink. His incredible hockey talents lead him away from the school to bigger and better opportunities, but no matter how far Saul goes, the ghosts of his past are always close behind.

The screening will take place in the AFC library and is suitable for adults only. The film is in French with French subtitles.
