9 Alberta-made short films that showcase talent from all around the province. From experimental animation to danceable documentaries, this diverse group of films will have something that will surely appeal to everyone.
Mosom (Grandfather) doesn’t want to start a conflict after being treated unjustly by a medical professional. After a string of funny flashbacks, Granddaughter’s fiery encouragement reminds Mosom of his strength to expect better. Throughout Mosom’s journey, a good doctor shares important facts and reassurance that Indigenous people should expect decent health care.
Filmmaker Lese Skidmore ((RE)CLAIMING INDIAN STATUS, CIFF 2020) uses Indigenous humor and education to encourage Indigenous people to speak up when they are mistreated in medical situations. This rotoscope animation was created to address the ongoing issues of systemic discrimination in Canadian health care systems.
