An Anishnawbe man decides to repopulate the lakes of his home territory with manoomin (wild rice) much to the disapproval of non-Indigenous cottagers, in particular a middle aged white woman. Based on a real conflict, Cottagers and Indians explores contemporary conflicts between Indigenous and non-Indigenous sensibilities with humour and fairness. Based on a real-life event still occurring in the Kawartha Lakes region of Central Ontario.
Realistic
A comedy of errors: Martha, a teetotalling pillar of the church, is stuck with 143 cases of beer after a church fundraiser fails. She decides to bootleg the beer to the horror of her son who is a special constable on the reserve where they live. He is smitten with his "cousin". Martha's daughter is sorting out relationship difficulties caught between an attractive pow-wow dancer and her conservative common law husband.
