A Story of Reconciliation
In this one-hour presentation, we witness to the multigenerational challenges and triumphs of a Wahgoshig First Nation family in pursuit of healing, progress, and truth.
Although the intergenerational trauma still runs deep, due to the historical oppression inflicted by the Indian Residential School experiences, the family continues to strive to advance the wellbeing of their community and First Nation.
Wahgoshig First Nation is located 2.5 hours northeast of Timmins, Ontario.

"We at W-PBS TV were thankful for the opportunity to bring this important subject matter to our viewers through this intimate and powerful Heartspeak documentary.
The healing journeys and experiences shared in Apitipi Anicinape: Our Journey Home were compelling and enabled the audience to identify with the challenges arising from the legacy of Canada’s past treatment of its Indigenous people, while at the same time, conveying a sense of hope for the future.
We believe that audiences will find in Apitipi Anicinape: Our Journey Home an opportunity to better understand the residential school legacy and the need for reconciliation."
