Synopsis

The Voice of Silence gives voice to Indigenous survivors of Canada’s residential school system, revealing the profound impact of a policy that separated children from their families, communities and cultural traditions. Through powerful first-hand testimonies, survivors recount experiences of abuse, loss and trauma, and the lasting effects on subsequent generations. The documentary also explores resilience, cultural renewal and the role of traditional knowledge in healing, while examining the ongoing challenges facing Indigenous communities in Québec and the continuing journey toward justice and reconciliation.
