A pointer toward Angela's Shadow (2025)


In the 1930's a rich couple with a child goe  to visit her nanny in the Cree community. She is harrassed by a dark figure who doesn't want there.

I'm not going to say much about ANGELA'S SHADOW. Not because there is anything wrong with it, but more that I have not been able to distance it from  other films I've seen recently and semi-recently concerning the relationship between the white world and the treatment of the First Nations. There have been a number of films all seeking to come to terms with the how badly people were treated and I have seen too many and at the present time I don't think I can keep the films distant.

In the present case the film is quite good. I like that there is a thriller element to it that makes it stand out from other explorations of the subject. It's good enough that if you are interested in the subject or want a good thriller you should give it a try.
