Virtual reality film a first for Indigenous playwright

An award-winning Indigenous playwright said she was somewhat hesitant to explore unchartered territory. But Yvette Nolan, a member of Kitigan Zibi Anishinabeg First Nation in Quebec, is now glad she agreed to write Reconciling, a virtual reality (VR) film production that will have its world premiere in Vancouver later this month. Nolan, who is 61, admits she was unfamiliar with VR films, which require a special headset to be viewed.
