OK I swear this is the last post I’ll make about the Oka Crisis this year… but it’s important to remember.
Alanis Obomsawin’s Kanehsatà:ke: 270 Years of Resistance didn’t just blow my mind — it shaped the way I approach filmmaking. It showed me that a film could be more than a record — it could be a weapon. A document of resistance that outlives the moment and keeps feeding the fire.
I wrote up some thoughts about that, and shared a few pieces I’ve made over the years about the so-called Oka Crisis — clips with Clifton Nicholas, Gord Hill and Ellen Gabriel.
