Listed cast: 1 female, 1 male. Approximate running time: 25 minutes.
First Nations tribes from far and wide are converging on the Williams Lake Stampede in British Columbia’s central interior. All the men and women have gone into town to celebrate. Only the very old and the very young stay behind in an encampment at the outskirts of town. As the fires burn low, and young Josh tells his grandmother his dreams of one day becoming a competitor, old Noki relates the story of a fateful horse race that a few years ago claimed Josh’s father’s life.
