Love this movie! Highly recommend, every Canadian should watch this. This movie details the life of Buffy Sainte-Marie from a baby born on a reserve in rural Saskatchewan and adopted into a 1940s working class American family to her present maturity, and in each life stage she demonstrates a unique creativity, determination, and sense of self. As a world-renowned singer-songwriter, Buffy Sainte-Marie asks us to probe beneath the surface to hear her political messages. And as a Native American, she implores us to look beyond the stereotypes of her community to see their rich culture. In her music, in her art, and in her role on Sesame Street, Buffy has seamlessly traversed the worlds of creative expression and activism, and of show biz culture and Native culture, balancing them in her personal life and bridging them in the public's eye.
