The longer movie is due out in 2017, but it’s very nice to have this
short film and supporting website available now as an antidote to all of
the Goldwater blitz.

First Light independently documents the work of the Maine Wabanaki-State Child Welfare Truth and Reconciliation Commission,
the first such task force to investigate issues important to Native
Americans. The commission was dedicated to uncovering and acknowledging
the truth about what happened to Wabanaki children and families involved
with the child welfare system. First Light is the debut film in the Dawnland series, which is anchored by the feature film Dawnland slated for release in early 2017.
