About this Event
Ithaca Premiere>2020 > USA > Directed by Sky Hopinka
With Jordan Mercier, Sweetwater Sahme
A poetic experimental documentary that follows Sweetwater Sahme and Jordan Mercier as they wander through their surroundings in the Pacific Northwest and contemplate the afterlife, rebirth, and the place in-between. Spoken mostly in chinuk wawa, their stories are departures from the Chinookan origin of death myth, with its distant beginning and circular shape. "Hopinka subtly inverts the tropes of the ethnographic documentary to depict indigenous life from an indigenous perspective." (Cinema Scope) Subtitled. More at grasshopperfilm.com/film/malni
