Louisiana Public Broadcasting will premiere a new documentary film focusing on the origin and evolution of the Cajun identity.
The film, Finding Cajun, was directed by Nathan Rabalais and will look at how Cajuns compare to the present-day Acadians in maritime Canada, a community that is supposedly at the historical root of Cajun ethnicity.
The film also explores how cultural and racial labels in Louisiana have shifted, especially over the past 70 years, and considers the stakes of maintaining (or losing) heritage languages in the United States.
