Synopsis:
How can learning serve to heal and to reconnect us to the place we live and to our community?
Re-learning the Land is the story of a Blackfoot community in southern Alberta, Canada, and how they have re-taken control of their education system. The film traces the decolonization of their learning and the development of an innovative program within Red Crow Community College that is reclaiming and teaching to a new generation the Blackfoot knowledge system that has sustained their community on their land for thousands of years.
Based on a very different cosmology, set of values and ways of teaching, the film is a subtle exploration of how another way of learning can provide other sets of relationships with the land, its beings and the community.
