With no high school in their community, the people of Shoal Lake 40 First Nation must send their children away from home at only 14 years old in order to access secondary educational opportunities. To honour the memory of her sister and her untimely passing in 1989, Angeline McLeod highlights the barriers her community faces around education. The film delivers a scathing indictment on systemic and urgent issues brought on by these social injustices through the use of home videos and childhood memories.
