Twilight Dancers — CBC Short Docs
Twilight Dancers, a group of Indigenous teenagers from Pimicikamak Cree Nation, use square dancing to help heal from the trauma of a suicide epidemic in their small, remote community. It’s the 58th Winter Festival in Pimicikamak Cree Nation, located on the 55th parallel in Canada’s boreal forest. The dancers compete not just to win, but to cope and support each other through grief and resilience.
