Kahentiiosta était à Kanehsatake, du début à la fin de la crise. Le film décrit ce qu'elle y a vécu, puis surtout sa comparution au tribunal parce que le Procureur général n'acceptait pas son nom mohawk et enfin sa vie et celle d'autres «warriors» au camp militaire de Farnham.******This documentary short by Alanis Obomsawin tells the story of Kahentiiosta, a young Kahnawake Mohawk woman arrested after the Oka Crisis' 78-day armed standoff in 1990. She was detained 4 days longer than the other women. Her crime? The prosecutor representing the Quebec government did not accept her Indigenous name.
