00:00When women are pregnant, they see more, they feel more.
00:04At that moment of birth, you're a gateway between this world and the spirit world.
00:10Mary wanted to see me again before I became a mother.
00:14There's something different here, a spirit in the land.
00:17Whatever is scaring you, a ceremony might help.
00:26I want to share your way of life with people.
00:28Me and Malachi are going hunting for a few days.
00:30You should come.
00:31That would be wonderful.
00:32No, no, no.
00:33No photos.
00:34Ladi gave birth to you and Asheni.
00:37Right here.
00:38His love died in childbirth.
00:41I convinced him to give you an English name and take you to Ottawa so his sister Nancy could raise you white.
00:47I'm reborn!
00:49We did a sweat ceremony.
00:51Be careful with that stuff. Jail time if we get caught.
00:54Not for me.
00:55I'm Cree.
00:56I don't understand.
00:57We have to keep this quiet.
00:59I've got us on tomorrow's train.
01:01I never agreed to that.
01:02There's no hospital, darling.
01:04No clean water.
01:05You are so...
01:06It is my job to protect you and our child.

01:12I'm leaving now.
01:13That's enough!
01:14That's enough!
01:15That's enough!
01:16That's enough.
01:17That's enough?
01:19That's enough.
01:25Help me!
01:26No!
01:28Oh!
01:29Oh, my God.
