Julian Brave Noisecat’s re-established relationship with his estranged father is the jumping off point for recounting the lives of the author and his family. "We Survived The Night" is a story both unique and familiar that Noisecat delivers with a mix of journalism, memoir, and his Secwepemc people’s traditional storytelling. Coming off the acclaim that includes an Oscar nomination for his documentary, "Sugarcane", Noisecat provides a deeper look into the personal experience, family lore, and neglected historical accounts that make up who he is.
