À propos

Residents and members of the public are invited to join us for a free film screening on September 30th to view the documentary Call Me Human (Kim O’Bomsawin, 2020) at 6:30pm at the Caledon East Community Complex in the Banquet Hall. The film will have English subtitles.

When elders leave us, a link to the past vanishes along with them. Innu writer Joséphine Bacon exemplifies a generation that is bearing witness to a time that will soon have passed away. With charm and diplomacy, she leads a charge against the loss of a language, a culture, and its traditions. On the trail of Papakassik, the master of the caribou, Call Me Human proposes a foray into a people's multi-millennial history in company with a woman of great spirit who has devoted her life to passing on her knowledge and that of her ancestors.
