Guru Nanak Jahaz

Sunday, May 18 until Monday, May 19, 2025Yukon Theatre

Inspired by true events, Guru Nanak Jahaz tells the gripping story of 376 Indian immigrants who arrive in Vancouver in 1914, only to be denied entry due to racist immigration laws. Trapped aboard their ship for two months, they become unwilling symbols of resistance against injustice. As legal battles rage and protests flare, the passengers’ fight for dignity exposes the deep racial prejudices of the time—sparking a legacy that would echo through history.
