Mother of Many Children . A. Obomsawin. 1991.
Documentary. VHS. 58 minutes.
An examination of the role, socialization, and living conditions of Canadian native women, this film focuses on the cycles of personal growth from birth to old age, as experienced and recounted by Indian and Inuit women in a series of interviews. The use of schooling on Indian children and the consideration of how Indian women's role has been shaped by dominating institutions add to the film's usefulness in the classroom.
