Short Film Program 3: A Mother’s Love

A Mother’s Love is resilient, strong and determined. It transcends physical boundaries. It finds a village shared among sisters and aunties, and it does it on its own. This program honours the ways motherhood can exist. Films included: istén:′a, The Sky is Very Pretty, Entre Nous Locataires (Between Us Tenants), Camping, AYKUO, Nigiqtuq (The South Wind), and He Karu He Taringa.

Co-presented by Native Women’s Resource Centre of Toronto, and Inuit Art Foundation.
