Fly on the Wall: Canada’s Residential School Legacy (2021)

Directed by Raúl Gallego Abellán

““If we save and when we save Fairy Creek, this world will start saving its soul.””

Documentary · 12m

For more than 100 years, thousands of Indigenous children died while in Canada’s residential school system. Pacheedaht Elder Bill Jones survived, but he, like many others, experienced years of beatings and sexual abuse. The scandal has finally brought the Indigenous rights struggle into focus, none more so than at Fairy Creek, an area of forest on First Nations land that protesters are desperately trying to prevent from falling into the hands of logging companies.
