Flat Rocks -- Film Description:
"Flat Rocks weaves together breathtaking present-day footage of Kahnawake with archival photos dating back over 80 years revealing the community's way of life threatened by the St. Lawrence Seaway. A poetic narration in the Kanien'kéha (Mohawk) language voices the community's connection to the water. Seventy-nine-year-old Louis Diabo battles against the construction of Canada's St. Lawrence Seaway during the 1950s to save his farm and the Kahnawake Mohawk community."
