What is a story? What power is in our experiences? Firebear Called Them Faith Healers presents vignettes of oral storytelling, from the life experience of Metis author Richard Van Camp. Seven people, of different ages and race, stand over a white background to tell a story in three vignettes: The Dream, The Fight and The Faith Healers. Lines from the vignettes are passed from one storyteller to the next to form one over- arching story of a mysterious man, who haunts their dreams and their lives. Told from the foundation of Aboriginal storytelling, Firebear Called Them Faith Healers questions the forces that exists above what we can see touch or hear and will stimulate discussion on storytelling, filmmaking and spirituality.
