INAATE/SE/ [it shines a certain way. to a certain place/it flies. falls./]

Adam Khalil, Zack Khalil

Collection: Single Titles

Tags: History, Indigenous, Post-colonialism, Religion/Spirituality

Adam Khalil and Zack Khalil’s debut film re-imagines an Anishinaabe story, the Seven Fires Prophecy, which both predates and predicts first contact with Europeans. A kaleidoscopic experience blending documentary, narrative, and experimental forms, INAATE/SE/ explores how the prophecy resonates through the generations in their Indigenous community on the Michigan/Canadian border. With acute geographic specificity, and grand historical scope, the film fixes its lens between the sacred and the profane to pry open the construction of contemporary Indigenous identity.

In English and Anishinaabemowin.
