Indigenous history repeats itself
The legendary Tecumseh was the first North American Indian leader to attempt to unite tribes
and thwart the relentless intrusion of colonial settlement. He died fighting for his cause, having been betrayed by both Indigenous and non-Indigenous allies.
Two centuries later the charismatic Billy Favell is elected National Chief of the Congress of First Nations, Canada's foremost Indigenous political organization.
Peshu Butler, a direct descendant of Tecumseh, is hired as a bodyguard/confidant for the National Chief. He learns that his boss and other First Nations leaders are willing to collude with the federal government and betray the interests of the people they are elected to represent.
At a critical moment, Peshu sees a shooting star flash overhead, like the comet that appeared on the night of Tecumseh's birth. Will it signify the beginning of real change for First Nations or a continuation of their frustrating quest for justice?
