    Overview

    A feature documentary that traces the storied journey of Indigenous masks from the far reaches of Turtle Island into the hands of European Surrealists, influencing the work and worldview of artists and writers like Max Ernst, Andrรฉ Breton, Roberto Matta and Joan Mirรณ โ€“ all while following the dramatic quest to return a mask that was brutally stolen from the Kwakwaฬฑkaฬฑสผwakw people on Canadaโ€™s northwest coast over a century ago. Part caper, part road trip, part spiritual journey, the film follows Cree filmmaker Neil Diamond (Reel Injun) as he travels coast-to-coast and across the Atlantic and back, gradually piecing together this global story of influence, reconnection and restitution.
