also worked as an English teacher for Saskatchewan Indian Federated
College. Hubbard is a PhD student in English at the University
of Calgary in Alberta. She received her MA and BA in English at

"For me, being raised out of my culture, filmmaking became
my way of reconnecting to my family and to my history. This particular
film, with its intense subject matter, ended up making me doubt
my skill as a filmmaker but also where I belong in my community.
There were some times where it just seemed too hard, but the courage
of the families, and especially the mothers, made me realize I
needed to find my source of strength, to do what I could to make
change. I hope to be able to combine my current academic work
with my creative work to challenge myself to grow as a filmmaker
and as a person."
