Don’t miss this stunningly beautiful film about the centrality of buffalo to Indigenous peoples, from award-winning Cree filmmaker Tasha Hubbard, director of NÎPAWISTAMÂSOWIN: WE WILL STAND UP, which screened at ArtSpring in 2019.This revelatory documentary follows Indigenous visionaries who are collaborating through buffalo breeding and distribution programs to rematriate the species from the edge of extinction to the lands they once defined.
Together with Blackfoot Elder Leroy Little Bear, Hubbard’s eight-year journey weaves an intimate story of humanity’s connections to buffalo, eloquently revealing how their return to the Great Plains can usher in a new era of sustainability and balance.
Richly visualized and deeply uplifting, this epic reimagining of Turtle Island through the lens of buffalo consciousness is a potent dream of what is within our grasp. In this time of immense environmental degradation and global uncertainty, the buffalo can lead us to a better tomorrow.
