Screening | Short Films by Native Americans

Friday, July 16, 2010, 1:00 pm

Free

Native directors capture the spirit of the exhibition Hide: Skin as Material and Metaphor.

Gesture Down (I Don't Sing) (2006, 10 min.) The filmmaker shares a poetic and personal reflection of his journey south from California to Mexico in search of the “last” traditional Kumeyaay singer. The work was inspired by James Welch’s poem, “Gesture Down to Guatemala.”

Good Looking (2007, 21 min.) A struggling young actor finally lands a role. Unfortunately, it’s as a bimbo in a zombie film. Now she must decide: take the part or maintain her self-respect?

My Métis Grandmother (2008, 30 min.) All her life, Cecile St. Amant concealed her Métis heritage. Now, her granddaughter, the filmmaker, lovingly begins to lead her to a new way of thinking.

Female Rain (2006, 2 min.) In a piece based on a poem by Navajo writer Laura Tohe, the filmmaker expresses her love of the Navajo language.

Writing the Land (2007, 8 min.) A celebration of Musqueam elder Larry Grant’s experience of rediscovering the Hunkamenum language and cultural traditions in the cityscape of Vancouver, located on ancestral Musqueam lands.
