Without truth there can be no reconciliation. Some of the truths of our shared history are extremely painful – such as the realities of the #SixtiesScoop portrayed in #LittleBirdSeries & our documentary. Today’s a day to recommit to education & action. #ComingHome #Rezorevolution

Director Erica Daniels on Indigenous leadership: “In order to truly show authentic Indigenous voices on-screen, reconciliation must first occur within the industry through creating spaces for Indigenous talent…We were meant to be at the forefront of telling our own stories…”

It’s International Day of the World’s Indigenous Peoples, & this year’s theme is “The Role of Indigenous Women in the Preservation and Transmission of Traditional Knowledge.” Coming Home is an example of the leadership of Indigenous women. #IndigenousPeoplesDay #Rezorevolution
Narrative sovereignty is about breaking stereotypes & misperceptions & undoing the harm that's been done in media & cinema while empowering Indigenous storytellers. Coming Home puts this into practice, as you can see in these beautiful behind-the-scenes photos. #Rezorevolution
