“This River”: Indigenous Film and Panel Discussion

The PEI Advisory Council on the Status of Women invites the public to a free screening of the short film This River in the Rotary Auditorium at the Charlottetown Library on March 17 at 5 pm. A panel discussion will follow the screening. 

Katherena Vernette’s 19-minute documentary offers an Indigenous perspective on the devastating experience of searching for a loved one who has disappeared, with themes of beauty, grace, resilience, and activism born out of the need to do something. 

Volunteer activist Kyle Kenatch and Katherina Vernette have both survived this heartbreak and will share their histories with each other and the audience. 

Refreshments will be provided and emotional support will be available. 

The storm date is March 23.
