Kanehsatake 270 years of resistance

"On a hot July day in 1990, an historic confrontation propelled Native issues in Kanehsatake and the village of Oka, Quebec into the international spotlight and into the Canadian conscience. Behind Mohawk lines that gruelling summer, producer and director Alanis Obomsawin, herself an Abenaki Indian, enrured 78 nerve-wracking days and nights filming an armed standoff between the Kanehsatake Mohawk people of First Nations, the Quebec police and the Canadian army."--Container.

  • "A l'été 1990, les Mohawks de Kanehsatake érigèrent des barricades près de la ville d'Oka pour protester contre un projet d'aménagement municipal qui aurait empiété sur leurs terres ancestrales. Le siège dura 78 jours et fut marqué par des affrontements avec la SQ et les Forces armées canadiennes, et par une couverture médiatique sensationnaliste. Le film retrace ces événements du point de vue des autochtones et tente aussi de situer leurs revendications territoriales dans un contexte historique plus large."
