Film Description: "Christians have cathedrals, Muslims their mosques. Indigenous people in Canada are used to praying in natural settings, all the world is a sacred space. Smudge follows three Indigenous women who celerate their right to worship in their own ways—drumming, singing or using sweetgrass—spiritual practices that may seem at odds with a busy city." -- National Film Board of Canada (source) |
