I think the film makers did a good job of presenting the setting in a realistic way. You could feel along with the indigenous children as they were strpped of their culture right from the start of their time spent at the residential school. I thought that Sladen
Peitier did a great job of acting for something that would obviously have hit home and may have made it more difficult to deal with the added emotions. It was also presented in a good way to get people to really feel the pain or emotion that the Indigenous people went through.
I thought it was hard to watch as no one should ever be treated so poorly.
