| Synopsis
|
"Ashley meets her great-uncle by the old train tracks near their
reserve in Nova Scotia. When she sees his sadness, he shares with her
the history of those tracks. Uncle tells her that, during his
childhood, the train would bring their community supplies, but there
came a day when the train took away with it something much more
important. One day he and the other children from the reserve were
taken aboard and transported to a residential school, where their
lives were changed forever. Ashley promises to wait with her uncle as
he sits by the tracks, waiting for what was taken from their people
to come back to them"Amazon.
