Beans (Feature Film): Based on true events, Tracey Deer's debut feature chronicles the 78-day standoff between two Mohawk communities and government forces in 1990 in Quebec.
Caribou in the Archive (Short Film): In this experimental film, the difference between homemade video and official historical record is made obvious, and yet at the same time, their boundaries are reduced.
About the Pairing:
Caribou in the Archive precedes Beans, a film about the Oka Crisis, as an important reminder that “history” and media representation, generally accepted as objective fact, is a select version of events often compiled by omission and bias.
