Residents in The Pas can mark National Day for Truth and Reconciliation with two film screenings at the Métis Hall on September 30th.

The evening begins at 7 p.m. with The Red Dress, exploring themes of cultural identity, sexual assault, and the historical impact of colonialism on First Nations and Métis communities.

At 8 p.m., Ancestral Beasts will be shown, followed by a special question-and-answer session with filmmaker Tim Riel.

National Day for Truth and Reconciliation is a time to honour residential school Survivors and remember the children who never returned home, while reflecting on the ongoing work of reconciliation.

Both screenings take place in the front room of the Métis Hall.
