In 2019, Reel Youth partnered with SkyFire Energy, Ermineskin Cree Nation, and Neyaskweyahk Group of Companies for an inter-generational film program in Ermineskin territory. We supported local Indigenous youth filmmakers as they spent time with Elders, recording their stories, wisdom, and knowledge. These videos contribute to the ongoing deepening of connections between generations, which have been impacted through the history of colonization. They also honour a future of energy self-sufficiency and celebration of Indigenous-owned Sundancer Solar Farm.
In our work we strive to embody what we hope to see in the world—a just humanity and community in which people are free to be themselves fully and without fear. A community where no one is exiled or silenced because of gender, gender expression, race, color, ethnic or national origin, religion, sexual/affectional orientation, age, class, physical character or disability. We believe in the power of storytelling to make connections across difference.
