Glasgow Short Film Festival ! By These Presents: First Nations Performance Shorts

Film Hub Scotland New Promoter Natasha Ruwona presents a varied programme of performance-based short films by First Nations Indigenous People of Canada.

Employing experimental formats which are often satirical, characters are created through costume and the utilisation of props to communicate stories that speak of Indigenous identities and experiences. What does it mean to perform and what freedom does performance give? Many of the films in this programme have been obtained through Vtape Distribution’s Aboriginal Digital Access Project funded by the Canada Council for the Arts.

Captioned for Deaf/Hard of Hearing audiences.
