Synopsis
This is the story of Eva, a Cree teenage girl, and her journey through the maze of a White Man’s high school.
In a hilarious new work from emerging First Nations artist Darla Contois, Eva goes on a quest for identity and spirituality through the hallways of teen angst, racism, and an evil prom queen. Both poetic and humorous, White Man’s Indian is a moving story of memory, courage, alienation, and belonging. (summerworks.ca)
