UNCORRUPTED: THE STORY OF ROSE PRINCE...A NATIVE SAINT? (excerpt)

Rose Prince was a 'Native flower of the north' that touched the lives of many both in life and death. People are now asking: Is the late Rose Prince a Saint? This documentary records the events taking place at the annual July pilgrimage to her gravesite at Lejac, British Columbia and the fact that miracles are being associated with the use of dirt from Rose's grave. Interviewees, miraculously healed, describe Rose as a humble and holy young native lady who spent almost her entire life at a Catholic residential school for natives. She died, in the service of God, in 1949 at the age of 35 of tuberculosis.
