Taking place in the mountains and valleys of British Columbia, BLOCKADE documents Gitksan and Wet’suwet’en challenges to settler claims of land ownership.

Synopsis

The Gitksan and Wet’suwet’en hereditary chiefs claim that everything within 22,000 square miles, including the trees, is rightfully theirs. A lot of white people don’t agree. The Hobenshields are the sons of white settlers. After 60 years of logging and living in the valley, they figure they are about as native to this part of the country as you can get.
