Special screening with filmmaker Matías Meyer in attendance
1885, Saskatchewan, Northwest Canada. Louis Riel, leader of the Métis people of Canada, a mixed group of indigenous and European ancestry, is sentenced to death, found guilty of high treason for having taken up arms against the Canadian government. Based on his prison diaries, we accompany him in his daily life, while he prepares for death. A portrait that makes us discover the political struggle, sacrifice and poetry of a fascinating character who has become a founding myth of Canada.
