My Indian Name Film Screening


  • DARC Microcinema 2 Daly Avenue Ottawa, ON, K1N 6E2 Canada (map)

DARC is proud to present My Indian Name for the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation. 


My “Indian” Name is a one-hour documentary that takes a look at how having their traditional names stripped away from them has impacted Indigenous peoples. Without their original names, people are often left trying to find how they fit in this world. Luckily today, steps are being taken to reclaim their basic right to their true names.


Watch this educational documentary film in the DARC Microcinema from September 30th to November 4th alongside SGaawaay K’uuna (Edge of The Knife). No registration is required for the day-long looping screenings. 


DARC’s Microcinema programming is always FREE, donations are welcome.
