A film by Caroline Monnet

Are you ready, Mani?

Yes.

I like it, Frankie.

I almost lost all of my French.

Thank you.

See you soon.

Hello, sweetheart.

Hello, mushum.

Do you recognize the road?

The roads are still all the same.

We are proud of your success,

even if it means
we don't get to see you much.

Grandma is waiting for you.

She'll be so happy to see you.

I'll be in the shed
if you're looking for me.

Grandma?

It's been so long

since I hugged you.

Winter came late this year.

We were able to keep
the summer camp longer at the river.

It has always been my favourite spot.

Your Algonquin is rusty.

Give me your foot.

What happened?

Nothing, it was just a dog.

Were you alone?

I don't need anyone.

What about grandpa?

It's been a long time
since I've eaten moose.

This moose is a gift
I received two days ago.

It's good that you're here.

There's a band council meeting tonight.

I'd like you to represent us.

It's going to be too late for us.

Please, please,

let's stick to the agenda
or we'll be here till midnight!

Brenda.

I'm going to fight
to keep the reserve dry

because I want to protect my kids.

It's irresponsible
to even think of bringing legal booze

in our community.

That's what I think

and there's no way I'll vote for that.

I disagree,
prohibition makes things even worse.

I promise you the Band Council
is looking for options!

Voting is the solution!

Éric. Oscar.

I work all the time and I need help.

Training recruits is our priority.
Give it time.

It's not enough.

There are checkpoints
entering the reserve.

It's all I can do.

Booze still come in.
There is no one to point the finger.

We do a lot
with what little we've got.

When are we going to get
the new school you promised?

Trust me. We're working on it.
It'll come soon.

It's always the same, nothing but lies.
I don't believe it.

Please, please.

We'd like to give everyone
a chance to speak.

I see those who come
to the reserve full of greed

thinking only of getting rich

and then they go back south!

We won't solve
all our problems tonight.

But I'll consider your comments.

Collect your Christmas gift.

Raymond and I are offering everyone
a frozen turkey.

Laura will meet you outside.

The past year's been hard.
I'm proud of you.

We got to work,
took on big challenges.

On behalf of the band council,
Happy Holidays.

Thank you, everyone.

Thank you all for your presence.

We thank the Creator for our day

and for his presence
and all his creations.

We now each go our own way

guided by the Creator's will.

The meeting is now adjourned

and may our return home be protected.

Hello Mani!

I wasn't sure it was you.
It's been a while.

Too long.

Things are really tense here!

It's often like that, these days.

They voted for me
but it didn't please everyone.

How is law school going?

A graduate in the family,
that's a big deal!

I try to make my own way.

Have a good evening.

- Here.
- Got something else for me?

No, that's all for today.

You're kidding?

Everyone gets the same.

Here.

You can keep it.

It's a gift.

Oscar?

Didn't expect to see you here.

You haven't changed.

I'm a father now.

I see you have a say
in the community.

Yes, but I'm not the one
who makes the decisions.

Did you know there are stray dogs

near my grandparent's house?

Speak to Raymond.
He takes care of that.

I'd rather it were you.

Come, I'll give you a lift.

You chose the right evening to show up.

At least
they're speaking their minds.

That's encouraging, no?

You think so?

Jeanne's done half of her term
and nothing's moved.

It really pisses me off.

Is there still just as much booze?

It's worse than ever.

She just turns a blind eye.

She doesn't get called
to people's homes at 3 a.m.

She doesn't have to pick up the wounded.

The situation's dead serious.
Things will explode.

You're the one who's going to explode.

What brings you back here?

I've come to complete
my research project.

You come here

you take and you leave.

You never felt like leaving?

Some have the courage to leave...

and others have the courage to stay.

Pass it here.

Show me your ID.

Come on, Joe.

Give it to me.

This is for you, Pete.

We love you, buddy.

Hope you have all you need,
wherever you are.

You left us too soon, Pete.
Make sure to watch over us!

Here's to our future!

Here's your taxi ride, Paul!

This won't be cheap.

Just leave us alone!

I told you before
to not come at night.

Get off our backs!

You're lucky I take care of you.

It's just fucking bullshit!

Empty that.

Where do you buy it?

Made it ourselves.

You'll go blind
if you keep drinking that shit.

I don't want to see
or hear about it again.

That goes for everyone.

It's time you thought
about your future.

I'm gonna be your boss.

How's city life?

Fewer trees,

less air.

More buildings,

more people,

more of everything.

You're just a fucking racketeer!

We should've thrown you out
of the reserve long ago.

I don't know why
Raymond's with you.

You got a stick up your ass.

Whatcha looking at?

The next bingo on our airwaves
is this Thursday at 6 p.m.

Remember there are dogs loose
in the community.

They're getting more aggressive.

Please call to report a dog

that's endangering you or your family.

Try some, it'll warm you up.

Why do you come here to hide?

A long time ago, I was arrested

because of a law forbidding...

''Indians'' from drinking alcohol.

Not just here,

but everywhere.

That's the reason why I come here.

I don't want anyone to judge me

because of my past
and the events at that time.

Here, it is peaceful.

Everywhere.

Silence helps me think.

My mind feels freer here,

I can plan ahead.

I'm happy in the woods.

Just like at the crack of dawn,

as the time passes,

the sun gets brighter,
winning over the darkness.

In the end, both you and your wisdom

will follow this path.

No matter what battles you're waging,

you're bound to win some
and lose some.

But still,

with your knowledge,

you'll always be able to move forward!

As long as I live,

I'll help you.

You'll never be alone.

Several communities
have held referendums on prohibition.

We could follow their example.

Wait, we're not there yet.

Prohibition is an old paternalist law.

It comes from a time when the government
treated us like minors.

But that's no longer the case.

It's our decision to ban alcohol.

It doesn't work.

If everyone gets to vote,

it would be a good example
of empowerment.

The registration is quickly done online.

You just need to submit it

with the signatures
of the members of the council.

We don't have the programs
to support free alcohol.

Programs could be created.

With income from controlled sales,

you could have funds
for your new school.

Or whatever services
you consider a priority.

Otherwise
it's the bootleggers who'll profit.

It's a goldmine for them.

Things don't work like in the city here.

If the system doesn't work,

you can change it.

You must ask the people to vote.

You show up with your cowboy education
and tell us how to work?

You don't know what's best for us.

Raymond!

Mani needs an internet connection.

We'll put her in the visitor trailer
while she's here.

Can you do this?

You've changed.

You've become a woman.

I hope you won't stay too long.

I don't want to stir up old memories.

- The order ready yet?
- Yes, come in.

You're going back to the reserve
tonight?

Yes, I'll finish loading this.

How much longer
are you gonna do this?

Laura!

I recognized your little ass.

It's been forever
since that time in my truck.

When was it? Six?
Seven years ago?

Whatcha doing here?

Left your Indian at home?

Are you in town to buy him a leash?

Maybe a collar?

Come on.

Bye.

Hello!

Hello, Laura.

All good.

For you, Georges.

Good night.

And now for the weather,

the vast Algonquin territory
is overcast.

Some light snow is forecast
and the temperature's expected to drop.

We'll have to wait a bit
before going out on the lakes.

Be patient,

ice fishing should begin soon.

The Algonquin word of the day
is oushkinabich,

meaning: I'm fed up!

You can start with that.

Good morning.

Did you receive the products I ordered?

Yes, at the end of the aisle.

A sandwich
and 2 shots of whisky please.

Hear you've received some good stuff.

Find everything?

Yes. It came fast this time.

I called them
to put pressure on the delivery.

I'll have a pack of Player's Light.

Kids are well?

Yes. Excited for the holidays
and for Santa.

Well, send my best to the family.
Happy holidays.

CALL TO ALL

You manage well in Algonquin.

Thank you.

Seems it's the minimum
when you live here.

That's $7.90.

Want me
to dock an hour off your pay?

Get going, you little shit.

If you wish,
we can call the police.

Little shit!

Get out!

What's this?

Looking for testimonials
for a study project.

I want to hear from you!
Come see me at the visitors' centre!

Free entrance every day
between 10:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m.

Mani Brazeau, Granddaughter
of Nora and Johnny Brazeau.

Devilwoman!

You know that Fire Water
always finds the crack in everything

and you encourage it
to burn all on its path.

Until there's not
a single breath of life left.

Johnny, I don't have time
for bedtime stories.

You grow wiser with age?

C'mon Johnny,

in a couple of hours, you'll beg for it.

Where's the rest?

Here's some moose meat.

What should I do with this?

You'll have to answer
for your actions one day.

Without this meat,
your greed will starve you so much

that we'll find your skeleton
on the side of the road.

Castor?

What wrong, my boy?

Little shits.

Sit!

Gently. Sit!

Sit!

Fuck.

Mani, get up!

Raymond! Stay!

I want to take my daughter out!

Get down.

At least he's here!

Yes, but

on a leash.

I have to go to work.

Let's cuddle a bit.

Thanks for coming.

I'll ask you some questions.

If you're not comfortable, we'll stop.

I want to know
if the laws that govern us

are still valid today?

Are we able to pass on our values

even if it's been a century
since we were forced to assimilate?

My grandma says
that young people

are the bridge between the past
and the future.

You, Paul, how do you see your future?

I hope he'll do better than his dad.

After high school, I'd like to go
to the music conservatory.

That's good!

But you'll be far
from your friends and family.

What I want to learn isn't offered here.

So I have no choice.

Do you believe that's realistic
for future generations?

Our youth who've acquired education

must first and foremost

come back to serve their community.

Whoever starts living
like the white folks you see on TV

becomes assimilated.

Above all, you must be Indigenous.

Some say

that when we drink
white people's alcohol,

we participate in our own colonization.

What do you think?

I get that people who don't drink
want to keep it banned.

But others do it in secret.

I find that's worse.

Like everywhere else,
money rules the world.

There are people selling it here
who have the money to buy trucks

and burn 300 kilometers
worth of gas just to buy booze.

And the poorest pay for that.

I became a policeman
to make a difference.

I was full of enthusiasm.

I wanted to change the world.

I never would've imagined
it being so demanding.

Hello Rita.

I lost my daughter

because of alcohol.

It's not your fault.

I'm not the one
Raymond should've saved from the fire.

I'm not a big talker.

But I brought a poem.
I'd like to read it to you.

I'd love to hear it.

My bones are hurting
Shaking from a lack of words

The pain has settled

Unable to tell that yesterday
Has slipped from my grasp

I dream of a story
that would tell without fail

A whole life lived

You don't look at me

You don't see me

You don't hear me

You don't listen to me

You deprive me of my identity

You deprive me of my land

You want to be the master of my spirit

Who am I?

You don't know me

You don't know my legends

You don't know my history

Don't wait till I get angry
like a hurricane

Don't wait till I break my chains

Let's offer more help to alcoholics
than punishing the community.

Also, we could control our young people,

we'd be the sellers, not the outsiders.

When you know there's a sore
and don't treat it.

- Can it heal?
- It's the prohibition referendum.

We don't want it on the reserve.

I'd like people to know
that whatever the outcome,

there'll be no turning back.

Did you want tell us something, Mani?

Yes.

Why does prohibition exist?

It was a way for the government
to assimilate us.

In order to get access to alcohol,

you had to become a Canadian citizen

and give up your Indian Status.

If you wanted to vote,

you had to relinquish your status.

If you wanted to study,

you had to relinquish your status.

We were never winners in this.

That's why what's happening now
is important.

You have the power
to make a difference,

to change things with a vote.

Don't you fear the outcome

if we opened a liquor store
on the reserve?

No. I'm not afraid.

The community will gain pride,
if it takes control.

I have three children
and I have to boil the water.

I can't bathe them.

It's easier to get booze
than drinking water.

That's the problem.

Want to join the conversation?
Call us.

We want to hear your opinions.

Yes. Hello.

I'd like to come back
to what Mani was saying

and the scars left on our families.

When are you going
to shut the lawyer up?

Stop bringing in stock
until things calm down.

Don't you have a school to build?

Your business works
because I close my eyes.

You close your eyes.

And I shut my mouth.

You shouldn't let this happen to you.

You're losing your power.

Can I count on you?

Hello.

We heard you speak on the radio.

Bringing more alcohol here

is irresponsible and dangerous.

The violence that happens here

is often related to alcohol.

We are worried about our youth,

our lives and our traditions

and for the leaders
of future generations.

Do you understand?

It took almost four generations
to destroy us,

and it could take four more generations

to heal us.

We understand your motivations

but your ideas are breaking us apart
instead of unifying us.

Give it here.

Why didn't you come to my defense?

Bring me my tobacco.

You had me do this
when I was little.

I always loved it.

Are you sure you're not cold.

It's okay.

I find it difficult to put down roots.

I run away when it gets too intense.

I would really like to be able
to say that in our language.

I do not know how to express my anger.

I shouldn't have waited so long
to come see you.

What the hell does he want.

Damn.

What the fuck!

What?

Little thug.

What's going on?

Empty your pockets.

We always said never to kids.

That's for the tax.

And don't tell anyone.

Now beat it.

Beat it!

You've gone too far.

Either you help me
or you shut the fuck up.

Don't make that face!

Who's the one that profits
from my god damn business?

Bunch of hypocrites!

It's all for you Paul.
Happy birthday buddy!

We start again tomorrow.

What the heck.

What's this?

Damn.

Little shits.

YES TO A REFERENDUM

What are you doing?

Give me a hand!

If you split, don't ever come back,
you son of a bitch!

Damn it.

Castor?

Do you see the bark of this tree?

It tells a lot about the tree's life.

It's injured but still standing.

Will you be able to find
your snares under the snow?

I've been walking on this land
all my life.

I give you 24 hours, no more.

That's the best I can do, Laura.

You don't belong here anymore.
