NFB films reveal sad tales of foster children
Page 10
"Fosterchild" and "Richard Cardinal: Cry From A Diary Of A Metis Child," two NFB films, tell the true life, tragic stories of Native foster children who have gone through society's child welfare system.
"Richard Cardinal: Cry From A Diary Of A Metis Child" is so heart-wrenching one would prefer to believe it never happened but it did.
Cardinal, a victim of the child welfare system, had been shuffled through fourteen foster homes, a number of group homes and youth shelters.
