A brown haired, ten year-old-boy appears on screen.

The narrator says MEET JACOB,
HE'S GOT EPIC MOVES.
THE NARRATOR SAYS HE CAN MAKE MUSIC.

A clip shows Jacob playing the piano.

The narrator says HE IS A BIG CITY KID.
AND HE LOVES LACROSSE.
THESE GUYS ARE READY.

A friend high fives Jacob and says SELFIE.

The narrator says LET'S GO.

In animation, pictures of several different kids appear hanging on laundry lines. A raven on the lines flies off to the sun and opens his wings as the title of the show appears. It reads "Raven’s Quest."

Jacob says AANIIN, HELLO.
I'M JACOB AND I AM 10.
I'M CREE AND OJIBWE AND I
LIVE IN CANADA'S BIGGEST CITY, TORONTO.

An animated map shows the location of Toronto.

Jacob says THERE ARE 3 MILLION PEOPLE HERE.
IT'S VERY MULTI-CULTURAL.
I LIKE LIVING IN TORONTO.
HEY, DO YOU WANNA KNOW HOW TO
SAY I'M FROM TORONTO IN OJIBWE?
TORONTO, NIDONJIBAH.

(music plays)

Jacob says I'M FROM TORONTO.
SO THIS IS MY HOUSE.
I KIND OF LIVE IN THE
CENTRE OF THE CITY.
I LOVE LACROSSE.
IT'S A REALLY FUN SPORT.
I LIKE TO PLAY LACROSSE IN
MY LEAGUE BECAUSE TEAMWORK IS
REALLY FUN.
I PRACTICE AGAINST THE WALL TO
GET ME BETTER AT MY PASSING AND
MY CATCHING AND IF I WANT TO I
CAN CRADLE FOR A LITTLE BIT AND
THEN I PASS IT RIGHT AWAY
AND CRADLING'S IMPORTANT.
YOU'RE ROCKING THE
STICK BACK AND FORTH.
IF SOMEONE HITS YOUR STICK THE
BALL WON'T FALL OUT BUT THE FUN
PART IN LACROSSE IS WHEN YOU
GET A GOAL BECAUSE IT'S REALLY
AWESOME.
I LIKE TO CELEBRATE
GETTING A GOAL SOMETIMES.

Animated confetti falls over him as he scores.

Jacob walks in his house and says COME ON IN.
ANY OF MY NEW
FRIENDS ARE WELCOME.
HEY MOM.

Mom says HEY JACOB.

Mom is in her thirties, with long brown hair in a bun and wears print pants and a denim shirt.

Jacob says DID YOU GUYS KNOW THAT ME
AND MY MOM WE'RE IN BEAR CLAN?
AND YOU KNOW
WHAT'S REALLY WEIRD?
THERE'S NO BEARS IN
TORONTO BUT WE DO HAVE A CAT.

A clip shows a cap walking in the garden with the caption "Fronze."

Jacob walks upstairs and says COME ON AND SEE MY ROOM.

He lies on the bed and says YES.
THESE ARE PICTURES
FROM WHEN I WAS YOUNGER.
WHEN I WAS VERY LITTLE.
I WAS A SMALL BABY.

He shows some childhood art and says I HAVE MY LITTLE PAINTING I MADE
WHEN I WAS 3.
AND THIS HERE IS MY KEYBOARD.
I GOT IT LAST CHRISTMAS.
I PUT THE KEY MARKINGS ON SO I
KNOW WHAT LETTER THE KEY IS.
I'M SELF TAUGHT.
I LIKE TO TEACH
MYSELF HOW TO PLAY.

He plays and says I'M NOT THAT GOOD
WITH SHEET MUSIC YET.
THIS IS MY REGALIA RIGHT HERE.
HERE'S MY FAN.
MY OLD DRUM.
I HAVE THIS EAGLE CLAW RIGHT
HERE AND THIS IS SOMETHING THAT
USED TO GO ON MY HEAD WHEN I
WENT TO SUNDANCE AND THIS IS
ALSO SOMETHING
THAT WENT ON MY HEAD.
I LIKE TO DO STOP
MOTION ANIMATIONS.
I USE THIS VIDEO GAME
WITH A CAMERA ON IT.
YOU GOTTA DRAW A FRAME
AND THEN TAKE A PICTURE.
I'M ACTUALLY ERASING THE STICK
FIGURE AFTER I TAKE A PICTURE
AND THEN I DRAW A NEW ONE THAT'S
A BIT MORE AHEAD SO IT LOOKS
MORE REALISTIC
WHEN IT'S RUNNING.
WHEN YOU'RE DONE DRAWING ALL THE
FRAMES YOU'LL MAKE A STOP MOTION
ANIMATION SO IT'S LIKE A
SMALL VIDEO ANIMATION.
THIS IS MY FRIEND
RICKY RIGHT HERE.

Ricky is around 10, with slightly long brown hair and wears a blue and gray zip up jacket.

Jacob says HE GOES TO THE SAME SCHOOL AS ME
AND WHENEVER HE COMES OVER IT'S
PARKOUR TIME.

Ricky says YEAH.

Jacob says I FIRST MET HIM WHEN I WAS
REALLY REALLY LITTLE AROUND 2 OR
1 AND WE STARTED GROWING UP AND
HAVING A LOT OF FUN TOGETHER.
BEST FRIENDS FOREVER.
WE LIKE TO SPEND OUR TIME
OUTSIDE TOGETHER AND HE LIKES TO
BE REALLY GOOFY ALL THE TIME,
THAT'S WHY I THINK HE'S FUNNY.

Ricky says YAY.

They start jumping against the walls.

Jacob says PARKOUR, IT'S ALL
ABOUT PRACTICE.
YOU CAN PRACTICE PARKOUR AT YOUR
HOUSE BUT IT'S USUALLY BETTER TO
GO TO A BIGGER PARK.
TO BE SAFE IN PARKOUR YOU
NEED TO PRACTICE A LOT.
WHEN YOU'RE A SUPER BEGINNER YOU
SHOULD WEAR ELBOW PADS AND KNEE
PADS AND HELMET SO YOU
CAN BE MORE CAREFUL.
THE MOVES WE'RE DOING NOW
WE KIND OF MASTERED THEM.
THE MOST EXCITING PART ABOUT IT
IS THE FACT THAT YOU CAN EXCITE
OTHER PEOPLE WHILE DOING IT.
DEPENDING ON HOW GOOD YOU ARE.

They climb up and down stairs and walls at the park.

Ricky says SELFIE.

They high five.

Jacob says WE DID WELL.

(music plays)

Jacob says CLOSE TO MY HOUSE THERE'S A
PLACE THAT I CAN GET BANNOCK.
BANNOCK IS A
FIRST NATION'S FOOD.
IT'S A SPECIAL KIND OF BREAD.
WE LIKE TO EAT IT
WITH BUTTER AND JAM.
MMM.
THIS IS THE BEST.

Ricky nods.

At home, Jacob says THIS IS MY NEW DRUM.
THIS IS A HAND DRUM AND
THIS IS HOW YOU HOLD IT.
SO YOU GOTTA HOLD IT ON THE BACK
RIGHT HERE AND THIS IS HOW YOU
HOLD THE STICK.
YOU GOTTA MAKE
SURE YOU DON'T WAVE YOUR ARM.
YOU GOT TO USE YOUR WRIST MORE
SO WHEN YOU HIT IT'S A GOOD BEAT
TO IT AND YOUR ARM WON'T GET
AS TIRED WHEN YOU'RE DRUMMING.
I LIKE TRADITIONAL DRUMMING
BECAUSE IT'S NOT LIKE THE MODERN
ROCK 'N' ROLL DRUMMING OR
ANY OTHER KIND OF DRUMMING.

At an open place full of people, Jacob says NOW WE'RE AT THE POW WOW
DOESN'T IT LOOK AWESOME?
IT'S THE SUMMER
SOLSTICE POW WOW.
IT'S GONNA BE PEOPLE
FROM ALL OVER THE PLACE.

People in costume start drumming and dancing.

Jacob says IT'S A PRETTY COOL PLACE.
RIGHT HERE IS A POW WOW CAFÉ.
YUM.
HI MOM.
THERE'S SOME MORE BOOTHS.
A LOT OF MORE BOOTHS.
WAY MORE.
MY DAD'S HERE AND
SO IS MY GRANDPA.

Grandpa is in his fifties, with long wavy gray hair in a ponytail and a moustache. He wears glasses and a gingham shirt.

Jacob says ANOTHER IMPORTANT PART OF
THE POW WOW IS SINGING.
I LEARN THE SONGS FROM MY DAD
BECAUSE HE'S A REALLY REALLY
GOOD SINGER.

Dad is in his thirties, with short wavy brown hair and clean-shaven. He wears glasses, gray Bermuda shorts and a black T-shirt with a print on the front.

Jacob says HE ALSO TAUGHT ME HOW TO
DRUM WHEN I WAS LITTLE.
HE USED TO MAKE
ME SIT ON HIS LAP,
I WOULD GRAB THE STICK AND THEN
HE WOULD LIKE SHOW ME LIKE THE
PROPER BEATS AND STUFF.
I'M THE YOUNGEST DRUMMER
IN MY DAD'S DRUM GROUP.
MOST SONGS HAVE ENGLISH WORDS
IN THEM NOW BUT BEFORE THEY WERE
JUST CHANTING WORDS.
I THINK I'VE BEEN
SINGING FOR ABOUT 5 YEARS NOW.
THE FAMILY DRUM IS BIG SO
THERE'S SPACE FOR ALL THE
DRUMMERS.

6 men gather around the drum, beating and singing.

Jacob says THE SOUND JUST CARRIES
REALLY FAR FROM THE DRUM.
WHAT I THINK ABOUT WHEN I'M
DRUMMING IS ABOUT THE TEMPO AND
STUFF BECAUSE I
WANT TO KEEP THE BEAT.
IT'S QUITE HARD FOR BEGINNERS
BECAUSE YOU GO OFF BEAT BUT
YOU'LL GET MORE USED TO KEEPING
BEAT THE MORE DRUMMING YOU
PRACTICE.
I ALSO FEEL HAPPY WHEN I'M
DRUMMING BECAUSE WE'RE KEEPING
OUR TRADITION ALIVE
IN QUITE FUN WAY.

(music plays)

Jacob says BAAMAAPII.
SEE YOU LATER.
GREAT HANGING OUT TODAY.

Music plays as the end credits roll.
