Kim O’Bomsawin’s searing documentary explores the systemic failures that contribute to Indigenous women being eight times more likely to be murdered than other Canadian citizens. More importantly, it puts faces and stories to the women behind these numbers, profiling Indigenous women (including several Vancouver advocates) who seek to put an end to the cycle of violence. Ultimately, Quiet Killing is a story of resilience that carries a vital message about Indigenous women’s right to safety and justice.
