About Sugarcane
Julian Brave NoiseCat and Emily Kassie’s Oscar-nominated documentary Sugarcane sensitively portrays the experience of Indigenous communities in the wake of the discovery of unmarked children’s graves at a Kamloops residential school in 2021. Filmed during the widening investigation, Sugarcane illuminates the beauty of a community breaking cycles of intergenerational trauma and finding the strength to persevere.
