The Grizzlies gets into only a few minor scrapes on its way to a rousing finale via nparts
With so much talk these days of cultural appropriation and well-meaning but kind of racist movies , this based-in-fact story gave me pause. It’s the tale of a small town in Nunavut whose youth were inspired and given a sense of pride by the formation of a sports team.
But the game in question is lacrosse, a First Nations sport with at least a thousand-year history. It was once played with teams numbering in the hundreds, the goals up to 10 kilometres apart. Imagine the intensity of football on a field the size of a golf course with more players than the Blue Jays have spectators these days.
The film highlights many of the problems facing the First Nations of the Far North, including the lasting impact of the residential school system, and the fact – recently “rediscovered” by the CBC – that basic groceries are several times more expensive there. There’s a quiet subplot about one of the kids not having enough to eat. And Will Sasso in comic-relief mode tells Russ how he handles the isolation of the North: “I do the same thing everyone else does; I drink.
