Jackson, Lisa (Lisa L.), (film director,, screenwriter.). Ballenty, Marty, (narrator.). Gwa'sala-'Nakwaxda'xw Nations (Added Author). Bliss Pictures, (production company.). Moving Images Distribution. (Added Author).

Summary: "This film traces the history of the Gwa'sala-'Nakwaxda'xw Nation, who the Canadian government forcibly relocated from their traditional territories in British Columbia in 1964. Candid and moving interviews, striking archival footage, and a visit to their stunning "Homelands" bring to life the story of a people known for their theatrical dances, strong connection to the land, and the strength that has enabled them to overcome incredible hardships." --container
