At the Place of Ghosts

Estranged Mi’kmaq brothers Mise’l and Antle reunite in Sk+te’kmujue’katik, a forest tied to their childhood and unresolved past. Returning home stirs long-buried memories, emotional wounds, and the complicated intimacy of a bond shaped by masculinity, silence, and care. As they navigate grief, responsibility, and cultural inheritance, the landscape becomes a space for reflection rather than fear—where memory lingers and healing begins. Grounded in tenderness and restraint, the film explores queer vulnerability, brotherhood, and reconnection, reframing “haunting” as the emotional weight we carry and the possibility of release through honesty, closeness, and mutual recognition.
