Description:

Show detail Hide detail

TWO INDIANS TALKING is a movie about the conflicting opinions of two First Nations men - Adam (Justin Rain) and Nathan (Nathaniel Arcand) - as they prepare to set up a roadblock. Each man wants fiercely to do the right thing, but struggles with the question, 'When you do something for the right reasons, does that make it the right thing to do?'The two grew up cousins on the same reservation, and they've just driven to an empty community centre in anticipation of the same cause. Over the course of 24 hours together awaiting the arrival of Cree backup for their nation's road block, with much banter and discussion, the similarities seem to end there. With little else to do in the community centre, they debate their differences on life, women, literature, dreams, politics, education, poverty and the question of hope for the future. Despite Adam's university education and Nathan's "school of hard knocks" background, both men are passionately determined to do the right thing.A disarming confrontation of hot-button issues, this film brings to light the complexity of discussions occurring within Native communities today. <96mn 05s>
