Nuu-Chah-Nulth: Reclaiming Tradition

Описание: The Nuu-chah-nulth First Nations of Vancouver Island, BC are decolonizing indigenous education. They are integrating language, tradition, and land-based skills into their school curriculum to save their culture from the brink of extinction and offer a different future for the next generations.

In this multiple award-winning short documentary, we meet a fisherwomen, a culture & language teacher, and a totem pole carver. All three committed to passing down their knowledge. For over a thousand years, the 14 tribes that make up the Nuu-chah-nulth nations have lived in balance with nature. Now, we see them turning to land-based skills as a tool for cultural reclamation.

This film is made possible thanks to the collaboration and generosity of the Mowachaht & Muchalaht Nations.
