November 23, 2024 @ 12:00 pm - 2:00 pm

Thea is an 8-year-old Ojibwe girl who is in the process of learning how to speak her traditional language from her mother, Rose. Once a fluent speaker of Anishinaabemowin, the Ojibwe language, Rose’s language skills have become rusty now that she and her daughter live in Vancouver, far away from their family. But through flashcards, websites, and what Rose remembers, Thea is well on her way. When Thea’s grandmother falls ill, the two make plans to travel to be with her and Thea makes it her goal to surprise “Gram” with her newfound knowledge, believing it will be the key to helping her feel better. However, she soon learns that Gram won’t be getting any better and instead of surprising her, Thea must instead learn to say goodbye.
