Please join Gwich’in filmmakers, Princess Daazhraii Johnson and Alisha Carlson, as they speak to their experience being a part of the Season 1 of the Reciprocity Project with their short Gwich’in language film “Diiyeghanaii T’aii Tr’edaa”. They will also speak to the notion of ‘Narrative Sovereignty’ and why it’s so critical for Indigenous Peoples to tell stories from their unique perspective.

Arctic Fest acknowledges that the festival takes place on the unceded lands of the Lower Tanana Dene peoples. We pay our respects to elders past, present and emerging, and to their ongoing stewardship of their ancestral lands and waters.
