Synopsis:
In 2004, Amnesty International made a bold pronouncement and it wasn't about Guantanamo, Saudi Arabia, or other global hotspots where you would expect human rights violations. It was against Canada. Amnesty International charges that Canada is “putting Indigenous women in danger of kidnapping and violent deaths through racism and indifference.” It is estimated that over 500 aboriginal women have been murdered or gone missing in violent circumstances in Canada in the past 20 years. An Aboriginal woman in Canada is five times more likely to die of violence circumstances than a woman of any other race. These women come from all walks of life and economic backgrounds. Stolen Sisters is a one-hour television documentary that takes viewers inside this contentious issue, from the rolling farmland of Saskatchewan to the haunting depths of the dark alleys in Vancouver’s dangerous Hastings district. You will hear the stories of the missing and witness one family’s desperate search for their loved one.
