Do you know any indigenous people that have a compelling story to share?** Hello! My name is Billy George Williams. I am the CEO/Owner of BGW Film Studios inc. We focus on the self-reliance and independence of the indigenous people by creating documentary films series that highlight students and professionals. The first of its series is about a young boy taken out of his home and taken to residential school. Almost killed at residential school and later transferred out of the school and put into the foster care system. While in the foster care system his late foster mother argues with the family doctor to get his feet and ears looked at to see if they can be operated on. Mrs. Williams did this for two years and finally the family doctor agreed to have specialist look at this boys feet and ears to see if they can be operated on so that he could walk straight and hear. The specialist said in his report to the family doctor that it would be possible to have feet and ear operations, but they weren't guaranteeing that this young boy would walk and hear. After two years of operations on this young boys feet and ears, the first time he walked straight was when he was 10 years old; and the first time he heard he was 12 years old. When social service found out when he was walking straight and hearing they brought the money down to money of the day that foster parents were getting in the 60's and 70's. The late Williams got a lot of money for looking after this young boy and when social service brought the money down, the late Williams kicked this young boy out of their home at the age of 13. The young boy went to his social worker and the social worker brought him to her supervisor's office. He sat down and the supervisor said to this young boy with a cold stone heart said that he was going to be put on independent living. The young boy asked what that meant and the supervisor said to him that he would be living on his own. Two weeks after this boy was on his own, he went for a sunny Sunday afternoon walk and after walking for two hours he rested on a bench. While he was sitting there contiplating on life, a van pulled up and a guy asked for directions. The young boy pointed where the man needed to go and the man started driving off, but he stopped and backed up. He rowled down his window and asked the young boy if he could show him and the man promised that he would drop him off anywhere he wanted. The boy thought about it and agreed to help him and he got in the van. The man never did stop to drop this young man off, but drove up to the mountains and stopped once he got a quarter of the way up the mountain. The man pulled out a large fishing knife and put it to the young boys kneck and told him to take his clothes off or he would kill him. After the man finish doing what he did, he started to drive off and told the young boy to get out or he would kill him. The young boy jumped out and started rolling on the gravel road, and an angel came to his rescue. He put his large hand behind the boys head and the other arm under his legs and the angel gently props him on the gravel road. As the boy laid there in his own blood he contiplated death, he didn't want to live. The angel asked: "What do you want to do?". The young boy replied that he wanted to die. The angel asked again: "What do you want to do?". The boy was crying and said he wanted to die. The angel asked in a more gentle way: "What do you want to do?". The boy slowly got up and said he wanted to live. The young boy started walking home naked on gravel road. Once he got home the neighbors came over and asked why he was walking around naked. The boy while crying said: "he was kidnapped, raped, almost killed, and left for dead up in the mountains. They phoned the police and the young boy told what had happened and he gave the discription of the van and the last three digits of the license plate. It took the police two weeks to find this man in a hotel who was getting ready to go onto his next victom. This young boy was called to court to undentify the man and as he walked past this man, the man said: "I didn't kill you up in the mountains, but I will kill you when I get out". The young boy answers the crowns question can you see the man in court today and the young boy pointed to the man who kidnapped him, raped him, almost kill him, and left him for dead up in the mountains. This young boy lived his life in fear most of his life, he couldn't walk in the dark, and he checked his place when he got home to see if the man was hiding in his place. Once he realized that the man was not around he propted a chair under the door nob. This is how the young boy lived up until he was fourty years old when he met his now wife Sylvia. He said to Sylvia that he needed to go up to the mountains to forgive this man and let him go. Sylvia looked at this man that she married and said to him: "You're a strong person and I'm glad you're still here". When they drove up to the mountain and stopped where the van was, he could see the van and see what the man was doing. He reached into his pocket and pulled out a piece of paper that read: "I forgive you and I let you go". He stretches out his arm and visualizes the van one last time and says: "I forgive you and I let you go". From that moment on, the young man lived his life in PEACE and today he is a filmmaker.
