Incident at Restigouche (1984, 46 min.). A historical perspective on the raids of the Restigouche Reserve in June 11 and 20, 1981. Focusing on issue of salmon-fishing rights of the Micmac people and the Quebec Government’s decision to restrict salmon fishing, the powerful film puts justice on trial. Spudwrench—Kahnawake Man (1997, 58 min.). Meet Randy Horne, high-steel worker from the Mohawk community of Kahnawake, near Montreal. As a defender of his people’s culture and traditions, he was known as “Spudwrench” during the 1990 Oka crisis. Both a portrait of Horne and the generations of daring Mohawk construction workers that have preceded him, the film offers a unique look behind the barricades at one man's impassioned defense of sacred territory.
