This film accompanies three Indigenous Elders from Manitoba on a voyage to the Czech Republic as they relive their past through traditional ceremonies and dress appropriated by their European admirers. Hesitation gives way to humour, fear gives way to friendship, and out of a common passion for the traditions of Indigenous Peoples in North America, a collective hope for the future is born.
