Night Raiders (2021)
5/10
expected aliens
19 September 2022
Niska is roaming the city with her daughter Waseese. This is a police state where children are rounded up to be re-educated.

This is taking the residential school scandal and putting a modern-day spin on it. I thought it was going sci-fi with an alien occupation story. That would be much more compelling. It would also require some cgi work which isn't their best skill set. The premise turns into a bit of a muddle. It starts well enough, but it turns into an attack on native cultures. The point of sci-fi is to give a universal take on the highlighted issue. This movie starts out that way and then it loses the thread. This could have a great sci-fi indie with a message.
