Lily Gladstone Instagram – For generations Indigenous children in North America were forced to attend residential schools in an attempt to “get rid of the Indian problem” through forced assimilation and cultural genocide. #SugarcaneFilm, the Oscar® nominated documentary from @jnoisecat and @emilykassie, brings the stories of the schools’ survivors and their descendants to light, paying tribute to the enduring love and beauty of an Indigenous community.
Now streaming on @hulu and @disneyplus.
