Guided by the spirit of her grandmother and the wisdom of her elderly uncle, filmmaker Michelle Derosier struggles to persuade four generations of her kin to revive their traditional annual wild rice (Manomin) harvest.  Realizing they are only a few years away from the complete loss of this ancient tradition, she hopes the teachings of her ancestors can be passed on to her children and her grandchildren before it's too late.
 
Come and learn about Michelle's struggles and discuss the film's themes after the screening! Spaces are limited. RSVP now.
 
Details: Wednesday, April 12th at 7 p.m. at Inter Pares' office, 221 Laurier Ave. East, Ottawa.
