Synopsis
A highly charged documentary about two parties, unflappable in their pursuit of nationhood, who fought one of the most important environmental David-and-Goliath battles in North America. For Quebec's Northern Cree, a people who have lived on the eastern shores of James Bay and Hudson Bay for the past 5000 years, the land and the wather have always meant life. But to the Quebec government and the state-owned power utility, Hydro Quebec, the Cree's territory was a vast untapped resource which held the key to the province's economic destiny.
