The Federal Court Hearing(2012)
The Federal Court Hearing Synopsis
Amid a severe housing crisis that made international headlines in 2011, the federal government imposed third-party management on the Attawapiskat First Nation. In response, the First Nation’s leadership filed a challenge in federal court, claiming the appointment was unreasonable, contrary to law and harmful to community members. Alanis Obomsawin documents the remarkable judicial review that ensued in April 2012 in this companion work to her feature documentary The People of the Kattawapiskak River.
The Federal Court Hearing (2012) is a documentary film directed by Alanis Obomsawin, released on January 1, 2012 with a runtime of 20m.
