What we can all learn from film matriarchs: Jules Koostachin

Indigenous women are reshaping the film industry one story at a time. We sit down with filmmaker Jules Koostachin to talk about her new documentary Niimisak: Sisters in Film, a celebration of the women who paved the way and those continuing to break new ground. From cinematic legends to emerging voices, Jules highlights the talent, resilience and creative force of Indigenous women behind the camera. We explore what meaningful representation looks like, the systemic barriers that still exist, and how we can build lasting opportunities for Indigenous women in film.
