In the Wake of Our Ancestors
A film by Angela Watrous
When you’re born on land your ancestors stole, how can you live here with integrity?
In the Wake of Our Ancestors (95 minutes) follows filmmaker Angela Watrous and her aging father on a cross-country reckoning with their family’s and their country’s 400-year history of settler-colonization—speaking directly with Native American descendants of those their ancestors harmed.
