Abstract
This short TV feature highlights the events and people of the 1997 North American Indigenous Games in Victoria, British Columbia. The video focuses on Team Saskatchewan as it was created to document the team's success within the competition. It features several shots of various sporting events to award ceremonies; utilizing interviews with Team Saskatchewan's coaches and players (Team Sask '97 Chef de Mission Lorna Arcand for example) to augment the viewer's understanding of the Games themselves. Team Saskatchewan was clearly a team to beat in the 1997 Games, taking home medals in disciplines such as swimming and volleyball. In summary, this feature chronicles the legacy of Team Saskatchewan and, by extension, the NAIG as well.
