Synopsis
Within Indigenous cultures, differences were not traditionally seen as a handicap, but rather as a strength that could benefit the entire community. Such is the case with autistic people, considered to have unique gifts and connections to the spirit world. While our people are currently reclaiming our traditional knowledge and philosophies, we are also facing a severe lack of resources adapted to our new reality.

Through intimate encounters with Anders, They Are Sacred gives viewers unique access to the world of an autistic child, and to follow his father鈥檚 journey to bring back traditional First Nations perspectives in our contemporary world.

Registration is required.
