Asinabka Film & Media Arts Festival

Celebrating Indigenous Arts in Algonquin Territory

 

This year's Festival theme is inspired by a show called Stranger Things.  The catalyst for the show is a missing boy abducted by a monster from an alternate dimension.  Some major themes of the show are supernatural forces and secret government conspiracies.  The horrors of abducted children remind us of the horrors of residential schools, and government conspiracies remind us of that one aunt, uncle, or cousin who saw a UFO, or who watches too much X Files.  We're super excited to showcase all of the amazing films and artists at Asinabka this year, so come watch films with us!
