Traditional welcome by Dr T’uy’t’tanat Cease Wyss | Artist/Ethnobotanist/Cultural Consultant, Raven and Hummingbird Tea Co

What lessons can Indigenous land stewardship teach the film industry about sustainable storytelling?

A conversation that explores how Indigenous land stewardship, along with its deep-rooted knowledge of environmental sustainability, can inspire and transform the storytelling and production processes in the film and television industry. We’ll discuss the impact of the stories we tell, along with education, training, funding programs, and academic collaborations, all within the context of sustainability.


Telefilm CanadaAs a responsible leader in, and champion of, the Canadian audiovisual industry, Telefilm Canada commits to adopting eco-responsibility as a lens through which we work. This transformative commitment will be actualized in its capacity as: an investor in the value chain of content production; a promoter of Canadian talent, and the industry, both nationally and internationally; a financial administrator; and an employer and Crown corporation. This is in alignment with the Government of Canada’s target to achieve net-zero emissions by 2050.
