Canada. Haida Gwaii, Island Of The People
Description
Bernard Fontanille travels to the archipelago of Haida Gwaii, located on the western point of Canada. Formerly known as the Queen Charlotte Islands, the territory acquired its new name in 2010, in reference to the people that have lived there for thousands of years. Despite their distance from the mainland, the Haida have not been spared by history. These "First Nation People" account for 4% of Canadians and face the challenge of reviving vast swathes of memory. This reconstruction of identity also includes medicine.
