A Calgary documentary made and produced in honour of the Indigenous woman has been released. Gerald Auger created Warrior Women. It was a calling he felt compelled to answer, crediting the wisdom of a dying matriarch. “Warrior women is what my late grandmother told me on her death bed. She said: ‘In the future the woman is going to rise,'” Auger said. The film is meant to move audiences to learn and to heal, as it details some hard truths about Indigenous women.
