Description
Nish: An Innu word meaning "two." This word is also closely linked to the uniqueness of being Indigenous.
Léon and Éloïse have an unusual life. First, they're twins. Living as twins as teenagers isn't always easy. In Matimekush, an Innu community in northern Quebec, their daily lives will be turned upside down forever. A mysterious disappearance in the village will lead them to understand the fragility that surrounds them, the territory, and its dangers.
While completing a school project, Éloïse makes a disturbing discovery. Through discussions with her kukum, she uncovers the history of her people: their victories, but also their lost battles. Éloïse and her two best friends will do everything they can to bring these injustices to light.
Leon, meanwhile, spends all his free time playing hockey. However, his community doesn't have enough players to allow him to thrive in a top-level league. How can he prove to everyone that he has the talent to be a great player?
The twins' lives are turned upside down when their father learns he has a serious illness and must be treated in Quebec City, far, far away from his family: 942 kilometers south, to be exact. Will Léon and Éloïse be able to unite to get through this ordeal?
