Karlovy Vary: A Female First Nation Canadian Makes Her Very Personal Film Debut (Exclusive)

Director Sonia Bonspille Boileau digs into her First Nation roots for her new film "Le Dep," which heads to the Karlovy Vary International Film Festival in Czech Republic this weekend. An award-winning documentary filmmaker, Boileau's feature debut offers timely reflection on aboriginal struggle in Canada, where natives struggle to wrest their autonomy. For this psychological drama set in a small First Nations community in rural Quebec, Boileau cast relatively unknown actors and real Innu tribe members Eve Ringuette and Charles Buckell to tell the story of a young native woman (Ringuette) who recognizes her attacker when she's robbed at gunpoint in her father's convenience store.
