Aboriginal Myth Inspires Residential Schools Film

Armand Ruffo, an Ojibway poet and professor of Aboriginal Studies at Carleton University in Ottawa, wrote and produced the award-winning play, "A Windigo Tale". Feeling the need to reach a larger audience he assembled financing, cast aboriginal actors and directed a film version of his story which had its debut at a private screening in Ottawa on Wednesday night.
