Join us for a free viewing of the film Bones of Crows, directed by Marie Clements, with special remarks from Calgary Public Library CEO Sarah Meilleur, BA’01, and UCalgary’s Dr. Michael Hart, vice-provost (Indigenous Engagement).

Bones of Crows is a multigenerational epic and story of resilience told through the eyes of Cree matriarch Aline Spears, played throughout her life by Summer Testawich, Grace Dove (Monkey Beach) and Carla-Rae (Rutherford Falls). Removed from their family home and forced into Canada’s residential school system, young musical prodigy Aline and her siblings are plunged into a struggle for survival. Over the next hundred years, Aline and her descendants fight against systemic starvation, racism and sexual abuse — and work to build a more just future.
