Gather: A Film on Indigenous Foodways, Healing & Survival

Picture
Monday, October 12
2:00 - 3:15 pm CDT


A documentary about the fight to revitalize our native foodways

​Pontchartrain Film Festival and the Women's Center for Healing & Transformation present the third annual film screening for Indigenous Peoples Day at 2:00 pm on Monday, October 12. This year we join online with Slow Food USA's virtual cinema screening of GATHER.

Tickets are $5 at https://story-spaces.com/.../gather-the-fight-to... and proceeds will support indigenous communities through Slow Food USA’s National Resilience Fund.

After the screening, there will be a Q&A with film director Sanjay Rawal, seed + knowledge keeper Twila Cassadore, and Slow Food Turtle Island leaders Denisa Livingston and Shiloh Maples.

Gather, by director Sanjay Rawal, is an intimate portrait of the growing movement amongst Native Americans to reclaim their spiritual, political and cultural identities through food sovereignty, while battling the trauma of centuries of genocide.

Gather follows Nephi Craig, a chef from the White Mountain Apache Nation (Arizona), opening an indigenous café as a nutritional recovery clinic; Elsie Dubray, a young scientist from the Cheyenne River Sioux Nation (South Dakota), conducting landmark studies on bison; and the Ancestral Guard, a group of environmental activists from the Yurok Nation (Northern California), trying to save the Klamath river.
