Wildhood (2021)

Two brothers embark on a journey to find their birth mother after their abusive father had lied for years about her whereabouts; along the way, they reconnect with their indigenous heritage and make a new friend.A 2-spirited teen drags his younger brother along, as he escapes their abusive father and searches for their mother. Along the way, he meets people who help him become acquainted with his Mi’kmaw heritage, and to express his sexuality.This is a good 1st feature by the writer-director. However, the film is a bit too long, the leads are a bit too slender, and the coincidences seem a bit stretched. See it if you are interested in the themes, otherwise skip it.
