The Spirit Horse Returns is the powerful story of Ojibwe Horses, traditional spirit animals to the Métis and First Nations and helpers to all. With music by Anishinaabe storyteller Jodi Contin, artwork by Métis- Ojibwe painter and knowledge keeper Rhonda Snow, and an original orchestral score by Cree composer Andrew Balfour and Kevin Lau, this vivid and engaging production shows young audiences how all Canadians have an important role to play in protecting the land, so that Ojibwe Horses can flourish once again.
