Community Movie Screening:
If An Owl Calls Your Name
Patricia June Vickers, her brother Roy Henry Vickers, along with other Indigenous elders, healers, and activists from the Esk’etemc, Gitxsan, and Wet’suwet’en territories reflect upon their lives as forcefully assimilated Canadians. The effects of intergenerational trauma echo through the voices of residential school survivors and their children as they heal from substance abuse, violence, and disconnect from their culture.
Through connection to land, ancestral wisdom, and ceremonial healing they transform darkness into forgiveness and inner reconciliation. Prayers beyond religion, these stories echo a universal yearning for belonging and the sacredness of all life.
Warning: reference to sexual abuse, suicide, physical abuse, addiction, colonization and cultural erasure
On behalf of Experience Change and The Road Less Traveled Counseling Center, we are excited to invite you and your communities to join us in person for our third Community Film Screening at The People's Building.
The Road Less Traveled Counseling Center and Experience Change
The Road Less Traveled Counseling Center and Experience Change have partnered to offer screenings of the 12-film series, The Wisdom of the Ancestors, to share the beauty, wisdom, truth and challenge set forth within, with the goal of collective healing and reconnecting us as humanity to ourselves, our ancestral wisdom, one another, and Mother Earth.
