What could go wrong? Talk Treaty To Me follows the long friendship between Jess, a settler, and Max, a Nehiyaw woman. Max and Jess meet as children, and their friendship changes as they grow up and learn what it means to be a part of Treaty. Max and Jess’ story is intercut with two crass tricksters who were there when Treaty 6 was signed. The tricksters chase and taunt one another, and bleed into the world of Max and Jess.
