On a July day in 1990, a confrontation propelled First Nations issues in Kanehsatake and the village of Oka, Quebec, into the international spotlight. Director Alanis Obomsawin spent 78 nerve-wracking days and nights filming the armed stand-off between the Kanien’kéhaka (Mohawk) People, the Quebec police and the Canadian army. This powerful documentary takes you right into the action of this historic confrontation. The result is a portrait of the people behind the barricades.

Directed by Alanis Obomsawin - 1993 | 119 min
