Video Summary: This documentary follows a group of Aboriginal spiritual leaders on a journey to Europe. The leaders are tasked with performing a calling-home ceremony for the spirits of First Nations and Métis soldiers who died fighting in the World Wars. The goal of the ceremony is to bring peace and closure to the families of the fallen soldiers and to help the spirits find their way back home to Canada. The documentary highlights the cultural differences between Aboriginal and European communities and how the ceremony helps to bridge the gap between them.
