CAPITAINE
Synopsis
In the early 1990s, CAPTAIN, a former Navy gunner, is now working as a fisherman. He hopes his daughter MIA will one day take over his business. He is determined to protect her from drugs and corruption seeping into the Innu reserve he comes from, brought in from the nearby white village. When Mia reveals she wants to move to the city, Captain suppresses his anger, descends into apathy as memories of his time in residential school resurface. But when he learns that Mia left the reserve and is in danger, he abandons the high seas and hits the road toward Montreal, desperately hoping to find her.
*The terms “reserve” and “white” refer to the period in which the film takes place.
