A moving story of hardship and resilience, this drama by directors Ryan Cooper and Eva Thomas is anchored by the powerful performance by Gail Maurice, the Métis actor and filmmaker who festival audiences know for her roles in films like BONES OF CROWS (KCFF23) and for her own directorial debut ROSIE (KCFF23). Maurice stars as Aberdeen, an Indigenous woman who faces daunting challenges as an unhoused person in Winnipeg after being displaced from her community. Thankfully, friends like Alfred (Billy Merasty of STELLAR, KCFF23) and Grace (Jennifer Podemski) provide help and solace as Aberdeen strives to not only piece her life back together but restore long-broken bonds in her family. Exhibiting great fierceness and vulnerability, Maurice helps make ABERDEEN a vital showcase for some of Canada’s best acting talent and for two of its most promising new filmmakers.
