CW: disturbing themes of patriarchy and white supremacy


"This documentary is a crucial step on our healing path forward," says RoseAnne Archibald, Assembly of First Nations Chief. "Three generations of First Nations’ women speak to how the Doctrine of Discovery continues to loom over every aspect of our lives as Tribal people. Visually beautiful, it inspires without ever shying away from the impacts of genocide authored in the Papal Bull of 1493. 'The Doctrine of Recovery' is a call to action for reparations and revoking the Doctrine of Discovery."
