Abstract:
In his 2003 NFB film Totem: the Return of the G{u2019}psgolox Pole, filmmaker Gil Cardinal documented the struggle of the Haisla people of British Columbia to recover a traditional mortuary totem pole. Despite great efforts, the Haisla were unable to repatriate the pole from the Swedish museum in Stockholm where it was housed. In 2007, however, the Swedish museum quickly decided to return the pole to its rightful owners. This half-hour documentary follows the events of the final journey of the G{u2019}psgolox Pole as it returns home to Kitamaat and the Haisla people.
