An inspiring documentary on the amazing and wonderful Wilfred Buck. Adapted from Buck’s lively memoir “I Have Lived Four Lives”, the film weaves together stories from his life. The film depicts a journey to space beyond, and to the spaces between us all. doornumber3.ca/wilfred-buck/

Murray Sinclair dedicated his life to serving Indigenous people. He showed all Canadians a path toward Truth and Reconciliation. Rest easy Mizanay Gheezhik ("the One Who Speaks of Pictures in the Sky”); your legacy will live on.
