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.
Video of Charlie Fosseneauve revisiting France. He is accompanied by Clément Chartier and Kathy Hodgson-Smith. The video starts with Charlie looking around at an outdoor memorial.
Then Charlie asks questions of two women behind a counter. It may be the Juno Beach Centre. It sounds like he wanted to find landmarks he remembered. There is a tour of what could be a museum - possibly the Juno Beach Centre. Part of the video appears to be a road trip searching for where Charlie was stationed. Charlie is searching for the grave of his brother-in-law - Victor Carriere.
Kathy can be heard in the audio referencing that they found Victor's grave in 'section 339' in Antwerp on June 4.
