SUMMARY:Sugarcane: Film Screening
DESCRIPTION:EVENT DETAILS \n\n	\n		\n\n	\n	\nThe Hook AND LADDER THEATER \n\n\nDoors 6 PM \n\n\nFree and Open to the Public\n\n\nAll Ages\n\n\n		\n					\n\n	\n\n	\n				\n			\n			\n EVENT DESCRIPTION \n\n	\n		\n\n	\n	\nSugarcane: Film Screening At the Hook & Ladder\n\n\n\nA groundbreaking investigation exposes a shocking cover-up of cultural genocide perpetrated by the church and government\, and illuminates the enduring love\, beauty and courage of an Indigenous community.\n \nSUGARCANE\, the award-winning debut feature documentary from Julian Brave NoiseCat and Emily Kassie\, is a groundbreaking investigation into an Indian residential school\, shedding light on years of forced separation\, assimilation and abuse that Indigenous children experienced at the hands of Church and government. This urgent and timely film brings the hidden story of cultural genocide to audiences worldwide while celebrating the resilience of Native people as they work to overcome cycles of intergenerational trauma.\n—\nA stunning tribute to the resilience of Native people and their way of life – SUGARCANE\, the debut feature documentary from Julian Brave NoiseCat and Emily Kassie – is an epic cinematic portrait of a community during a moment of international reckoning. Set amidst a ground-breaking investigation into abuse and death at an Indian residential school\, the film empowers participants to break cycles of intergenerational trauma by bearing witness to painful\, long-ignored truths – and the love that endures within their families.  \n \nIn 2021\, evidence of unmarked graves near an Indian residential school run by the Catholic Church in Canada sparked a national outcry about the forced separation\, assimilation\, and abuse many children experienced at this network of segregated boarding schools designed to slowly destroy the culture and social fabric of Indigenous communities. When Kassie- a journalist and filmmaker- asked her old friend and colleague\, NoiseCat\, to direct a film documenting the Williams Lake First Nation investigation of St Joseph’s Mission\, she never imagined just how close this story was to his own family. As the investigation continued\, Emily and Julian traveled back to the rivers\, forests and mountains of his homelands to hear the myriad stories of survivors. During production\, Julian’s own story became an integral part of this beautiful multi-stranded portrait of a community. By offering space\, time\, and profound empathy the directors unearthed what was hidden. Kassie and NoiseCat encountered both the extraordinary pain these individuals had to suppress as a tool for survival and the unique beauty of a group of people finding the strength to persevere.\n—\nThis film was born of haunting truths and mythic forces. It was made through the combined perspectives of insiders and outsiders.\n \nFrom the outset\, we knew that SUGARCANE needed to convey how the past is present for the survivors of residential schools and their descendants. How the death toll from a century-long colonial effort by the Church and government continues to rise. So for nearly three years\, we lived alongside our participants\, feeling the rawness of their pain and bearing witness to the bravery in their resilience\, while documenting a vibrant world in a moment of historic reckoning.\n \nThroughout\, we were drawn to the contradictions we saw in the lives of our subjects: of faith\, of culture\, of the beauty and weight of home and family\, when those things have been so fundamentally broken\, and of the pursuit of truth\, which can both liberate and kill. But we also connected to the parts of this experience that transcended: of the humanity that called our subjects to a greater\, lasting purpose at the moment it mattered most; of the connection between departed ancestors and loved ones and the people they left behind; and of the forces that\, for some reason\, brought us together to tell this story.\n \nTo tell that kind of story\, our filmmaking aimed to be at once intimate and epic. We took time to revere the awe-inspiring mountains\, lakes and rivers of British Columbia and the dusky history of the Vatican—the Indigenous homelands and the imperial metropole that besieged them. We were alongside our participants as they dug graves for their friends\, as they searched for painful truths in the recesses of their memories\, and as they mustered the courage to confront representatives of the Church\, government and their own families. You can feel their hesitation\, the twitch of their fingers\, the catch in their breath as they struggle to confront their deepest secrets and give voice to their shame.\n \nFrom common values and a shared vision—based as much on heart as intellect\, and on vulnerability as much as experience—we were lucky to invite a small community of talented filmmakers into our core collaboration\, who lent their own compassion and brilliance to the making of our first feature documentary\, and from whom we learned a great deal. At many turns\, making this film was the most significant experience of our lives. It brought us closer to Creation and whatever that thing is that is beyond and greater than ourselves.\n \nIndian residential schools nearly annihilated the Indian way of life—a life imperiled by the pain and injustices of colonialism\, yes\, but also\, overwhelmingly\, a beautiful life full of family\, culture and love. Our film aims to transform these dark truths into powerful legends that can endure and be remembered by future generations.\n\n \n“This screening and Q&A made possible by a grant from Episcopal Divinity School\, through All Saints Indian Mission.”
