In this deeply moving feature-length documentary, three sisters and a brother meet for the first time. Removed from their young Dene mother during the infamous Sixties Scoop, they were separated as infants and adopted into families across North America.
Betty Ann, Esther, Rosalie, and Ben were only four of the 20,000 Indigenous Canadian children taken from their families between 1955 and 1985, to be either adopted into white families or live in foster care. As the four siblings piece together their shared history, their connection deepens, and their family begins to take shape. -website
Join Alexander on his first day of kindergarten, as he teaches his classmates about food allergy. Unlike all the other elephants he knows, Alexander can't eat peanuts, because he's allergic to them. In this Food Allergy & Analphylaxis Network (FAAN) production, he discovers that his new friends not only accept his food allergy, but are eager to learn about it and help him stay safe.
This DVD is designed to show children with food allergy that they are not alone and what they can do to stay safe when at school. It combines the animated story of Alexander with interviews of real-life children who have food allergy, and is particularly useful for opening up frank discussions about going to school with the condition. - Container
