Prairie Women's Health Centre of Excellence and the Winnipeg Aboriginal Film Festival (WAFF) invite you to a screening of short films: kiskinohamâtôtâpânâsk: Digital Stories of Intergenerational Effects on First Nations Women Whose Mothers Are Residential School Survivors

Six short films tell of the inter-generational legacy left by the residential school system on six First-Nations women whose mothers are residential school survivors. These first-time filmmakers wrote and produced their own films, and will be in attendance at the event. A discussion will follow. This event is part of Building Bridges: Intergenerational Impacts of Residential School, a special project undertaken by the Winnipeg Aboriginal Film Festival as part of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission’s Commemoration Initiative.
