Quirky portrait of K103.7 FM, the radio station that broadcasts from Kahnawake, Quebec, the Mohawk reserve located twenty minutes from downtown Montreal. Bingo, native rights, hip-hop and wrestling are all in the mix at this one-of-a-kind community radio station. The K broadcasts a ton of attitude from a shack on the edge of the St. Lawrence Seaway and is heard all across the big city and its suburbs, straddling the wide cultural gap between Mohawks and their neighbours.
