In this week's episode, Stephen and Carsten a look at indigenous filmmaking in Canada and beyond, starting with Mi'kmaw director Jeff Barnaby from just over the New Brunswick/Quebec border in Listuguj First Nation, with his recent apocalyptic zombie hit Blood Quantum and its kinda-prequel Rhymes for Young Ghouls, and moving to the Arctic, the U.S., Scandinavia, New Zealand and Australia. Each film tells a different story, but unsurprisingly the theme of the harm done by settler culture imposing its will on Indigenous communities is universal and a consistent thread through most of these films.
