Written by Drew Hayden Taylor

Directed by Xavier Huard

With Charles Bender, Natalie Tannous, Étienne Thibeault, Lesly Velázquez, Nadia Verrucci, and Xavier Watso

Angel is a young Anishinaabe science-fiction writer in a May-December relationship with Colleen, a “non-practicing” Jewish academic who studies Indigenous literatures. Unbeknownst to Angel, Colleen decides to invite his estranged “alterNative warrior” activist buddies to sit down for a meal with her own comrades, a couple of white liberal vegan veterinarians. What follows is an uproarious evening of cross-cultural communication (and miscommunication) that sheds light on the uncomfortable truths that continue to colour the relationship between Indigenous and settler communities.
