The next wave of Canadian and Indigenous storytellers
Hosting seven world premieres and welcoming several films that have already earned considerable acclaim on the festival circuit, Northern Lights once again serves notice that Canadian and Indigenous filmmakers are a force to be reckoned with. Many of the films found here take the form of involving journeys, be they across oceans or into the depths of memory. Elsewhere, there are accounts of indoctrination, incarceration, and fumbling bids for sexual liberation.
