The National Arts Centre Orchestra combines John Estacio's score with the choreography of Tekaronhiáhkhwa Santee Smith, Indigenous actor Monique Mojica, and filmmaker Barbara Willis Sweetie to present a heartfelt, revealing confession of anguish and the quest for expression.

Then, experience the creative genius of Canadian throat singer Tanya Tagaq, 2014 Polaris-Prize winner. In Qiksaaktuq, Tagaq improvises a lament for the murdered and missing Indigenous women alongside Christine Duncan and the National Arts Centre Orchestra.
