Synopsis

This CG-animated film evokes the experience of driving alone on an unlit rural road at night. Darkness is broken by the beam of headlights, creating dancing shadows, which obfuscate what lies beyond the road.

Production notes

Five films in the series are animated; the other eight are live-action documentaries.

A collaborative project between the National Film Board of Canada and APTN (Aboriginal People's Television Network).

Some of Canada's finest Aboriginal filmmakers - from Newfoundland and Labrador to British Columbia - come together in this collection of 13 short films on the subject of nationhood. The results are an exciting and diverse mix.
