    Singing Against the Silence

    This short Gaelic film about the Nova Scotia Gaels today has English subtitles and is really worth watching. If you're of Highland extraction, this might give you a window into the world of your ancestors and the pressure they faced to assimilate to English. It also talks about the threats to indigenous and heritage languages and cultures more broadly. There are also some nice shots of kilts and tartans in this film. If you have a few minutes to spare, you won't be sorry you did.
