ESKASONI | Trailblazers

A documentary about the past and future coming together in Eskasoni, Nova Scotia, the largest Mi'kmaq reserve in the world. This is where they are fighting to preserve language and culture against overwhelming odds by an innovative, grassroots Mi'kmaq language immersion program at the local school.
Created thanks to funding from the Triparte Forum and in collaboration with the Mi'kmaq Services Division of the Dept. of Education Nova Scotia. Produced and directed by Luckas Cardona-Morisset.

Im not Mi'kmaq or have any connection to Eskasoni. But whenever I visit relatives in Cape Breton each year. I find myself drawn to Eskasoni, Goat Island in particular whenever I feel anxiety or depressed or lonely. If anyone reads this, any thoughts or opinions are welcomed. God Bless Eskasoni
