Cree/Métis writer-director Adam Garnet Jones has crafted a personal story with a strong aboriginal cast.
Jones's Fire Song lays a heavy weight of despair on its thin frame, and the pressure bears down most heavily on his non-professional cast.
The gloomy mood is wonderfully portrayed with Garnett Jones's selection of shots of the desolate plains of Northern Ontario. The colour palette of dark greys and greens reaffirms the emotional state of the main characters.
It's confident, fresh cinema that rarely falters.
A sensitive portrait, but often a wretched one, of young people at crossroads, set on a Canadian First Nations reservation but with resonance far beyond.
The final half-hour, energized by Martin's tightly wound performance, is emotionally involving and unpredictable.
