Reviews
In 1970, plans for a hydroelectric project to be located in the Cree Indians' northern Quebec hunting grounds provoked the tribe to take legal action. "Drama, suspense and human interest abound in this stirring account of a minority group's struggle to save their land and lifestyle from the encroachment of a greedy and hostile government," said PW. Illustrated.
