Atikamekw Suns

Manawan, 1977. A vehicle falls into a river near an Indigenous community. Two white Quebecers escape unharmed, but five Atikamekw lose their lives. While the police conclude it was an accident, the victims' families are left with unanswered questions. A choral, historical and poetic tale, freely inspired by the dreams, impressions and memories of the victims' relatives, Atikamekw Suns brings reality and fiction together in a moving film about grief, injustice and memory.
