What if you saw Louis Riel's head floating down the street?

Riding her bike one hot summer afternoon, a Red River Métis woman named T-Bird sees Louis Riel’s head floating down the street. T-Bird had seen Riel’s head once before, when she was a little girl, and she ran away. But when she notices Riel’s head this time, T-Bird chases him down to discover that Riel is a living artist! T-Bird’s magical afternoon encounter with Louis Riel changes her life forever; through his vivid paintings and gentle compassion Riel helps her confront the pain and beauty of Red River Métis history and of her own life.
