Director: Brian Francis, Mélanie Line Richard / Description: Fifty years after the expropriation of Kouchibouguac National Park, The Spirit Remains follows the affected families in their healing journeys. Formerly living to the rhythm of the seasons, the tides and the weather like their first ancestors did, these Acadian people had to adapt to a new lifestyle, to the gaze of neighboring communities and to an expropriated status. A story of human resilience, connection to nature and the relationship with the Indigenous Mi'kmaq people.
