So, 'Doctor, Lawyer, Indian Chief' is this intriguing short documentary from '86 that kind of flies under the radar. It’s a heartfelt portrait of five Indigenous women in Canada, each with their own story that just hits differently. You've got Margaret Joe, the first Indigenous woman minister in the Yukon, which is pretty groundbreaking stuff. There’s a genuine rawness to the interviews, and the pacing feels unhurried, almost intimate. The film digs into themes of resilience and representation without needing to shout about it. The quiet power of these women's achievements comes through so clearly; it’s not just a documentary, it’s like a celebration of progress wrapped in personal stories. Definitely one to appreciate for its authenticity and depth.
