Zeke and Jet  is a profile-based documentary of the story of the titular young men, Zeke and Jet Campbell, two brothers of Ojibwe/Jamaican descent and the prejudice and discrimination they face on a day-to-day basis because of their race and status as children in foster care. 

“The National Household Survey (2011) indicated that 48% of 30,000 children and youth in foster care across Canada are Indigenous children, even though Indigenous peoples account for only 4.3% of the Canadian population.” Specifically, in Ontario, only 3% of the child population is Indigenous, but a staggering 21% of the children in care in this province are of Indigenous heritage and living off-reserve.
Indigenous children have always historically been overrepresented in the foster care system, a product of the history and repercussions of the Residential School Systems.
