Alexandra Lazarowich's Turtle Island Rap tracks the journey of three young Indigenous artists, Wiidaaseh, A$h Da Hunter, and Travis Thompson, from the hustle to the stage. In cinema verité style, the hard-won triumphs and trials are seen as their individual journeys are taken with warmth and humour, even when things are tough. Original score by Core composer BEN FOX.
The riveting narrative of the life of Tia Zhang, a young Chinese ballerina who came of age during the reign of Mao Zedong is now on Amazon Prime. Scored by Core composer JAMES MARK STEWART.
Based on writer-director Marie Clements’ (Bones of Crows, TIFF ’22) own play Tombs of the Vanishing Indian, How We Stand is a riveting drama of sisters whose lives are shaped by government policies meant to eradicate Indigenous people.
Scored by Core composer WAYNE LAVALLEE, Clements infuses How We Stand with "magic realism, a dose of humour — in particular with a send-up of Hollywood westerns —and compelling characters to craft a timely story about forced separation and finding connection."
