In collaboration with Asinabka Film & Media Arts Festival, DARC is proud to present Sonia Bonspille Boileau’s second dramatic feature, Rustic Oracle for National Canadian Film Day.
Shedding light on the lived realities of Indigenous peoples across the country, Rustic Oracle tells the story of an 8-year-old girl who sets about a journey with her mother to find her missing sister.
Synopsis
Set in the late 90s, Rustic Oracle is a dramatic feature about Ivy, an 8-year-old girl trying to understand what happened to her big sister who has vanished from their small Mohawk community. With minimal clues, Ivy and her mother Susan embark on an unwelcome journey to find Heather which ultimately brings the pair closer together despite challenging circumstances. Behind the story of desperation, told through the eyes of a child, lies one of hope, growth, awakening and love.
