SUMMARY:nehiyawewin screening
DESCRIPTION:The MacKenzie Art Gallery is proud to once again partner with the Regina International Film Festival and Awards (RIFFA)\, Saskatchewan’s largest film festival and a leading voice for cinematic storytelling in the Prairie provinces. \nA Cree Approach follows Tristin Greyeyes in her journey to understand why Cree was not her first language\, unraveling the story of her late grandmother\, Freda Ahenakew. Freda\, a single mother of 12 and a high school dropout\, witnessed a generational divide in her family—half of her children learned Cree as their first language\, while the rest grew up without it. Through interviews\, archival footage\, and personal reflection\, Tristin delves into Freda’s legacy\, uncovering the complex history behind her work and its profound impact on Indigenous language revitalization. Along the way\, Tristin is inspired to learn Cree herself\, as she recognizes the vital importance of preserving her cultural heritage. This intimate documentary is not only a tribute to Freda’s enduring influence but also a call to action for the reclamation of language and identity in Indigenous communities. \nLearn more
