Chasseurs cris de Mistassini

Long métrage documentaire sur la vie et la culture des Cris. Ces Indiens ont reçu, pendant quelques mois, la visite de cinéastes de l'ONF qui, de concert avec eux, ont entrepris de tourner un film sur leur mode de vie dans l’immense territoire sis au nord du Québec. Le film nous en présente les principaux aspects enrichis de commentaires dits par les Cris eux-mêmes dans leur propre langue. C'est un témoignage d'une rare actualité qui demeurera tel longtemps encore.
