Forgotten Warriors (1997)

Thousands of Indigenous Canadians enlisted and fought alongside their countrymen and women during World War II even though they could not be conscripted. Ironically, while they fought for the freedom of others, they were denied equality in their own country and returned home to find their land seized.
