Indigenous Youth Mentorship in Film Program

In concert with the production of The Body Remembers When the World Broke Open, this program provided paid professional and creative development opportunities for 11 emerging filmmakers working in each key department. This program was developed with the aim to build a filmmaking community that works across cultural barriers and imagines constructive means of engaging with content that interrupts cycles of colonial violence.
