Award-winning directors Nova Ami and Velcrow Ripper weave tog ether immersive on-the-ground footage with first-person accounts from Indi genous Elders\, first responders\, and ordinary people forced to react to a rapidly evolving ecosystem. As climate change continues to escalate\, f ull suppression measures have largely failed\, leading to bigger\, more in tense mega-fires. But there is another way. Indigenous knowledge keepers e xplain that the First Nations people traditionally used controlled burns t o regenerate the land. Honouring the experience of both human and non-huma n inhabitants\, the film transforms our understanding of fire from destru ction and disaster into a kind of profound illumination\, lighting the way towards new life and hope.\n\nTrailer: https://youtu.be/e17xBip25Xs\n\nNo pre-registration is required. All are welcome.
