Aberdeen is a raw, authentic feature drama interwoven with pockets of humor that shines a light on the indomitable Aberdeen; a middle-aged Indigenous climate change refugee who has been forced from her home due to flooding. As Aberdeen begrudgingly adjusts to big-city life, she must face the inter-generational cycle of trauma that has been tearing her family apart for 5 generations in order to protect her grandchildren.

This is what [ABERDEEN] reminds us of – that it can take almost a lifetime to undo all the grief and destruction from this [intergenerational] trauma. Nonetheless, change is possible and families can reunite and start anew. Go to Full Review

Perhaps it’s still an important film, but it’s not particularly good. Go to Full Review
Louis Roberts Loud and Clear Reviews 09/13/2024
3.5/5
It is almost relentlessly bleak, its characters engaging in a series of shouting matches and little else. When comic relief arrives, usually in the form of Bill Merasty’s witty but one-note Alfred, the tonal clash jars. Go to Full Review
