My Dads, My Moms, and Me

Twelve years ago, three gay fathers, two lesbian mothers and five children let the camera into their lives and shared their stories of adoption, co-parenting and surrogacy. These three very personal stories were filmed just several years after same-sex marriage was legalized in Canada. The camera returns to three families in 2018, in an attempt to find unbiased answers to questions that continue to be relevant: To what extent the upbringing in non-traditional families impacts a child? Have societal outlooks on non-traditional family structures changed in Canada since 2003?

Kwanxwala - Thunder

Kwanxwala-Thunder recovers the history of the Kwakwaka’wakw and stitches it together with contemporary stories of football and potlach in Canada. This creative documentary intertwines Canadian history, indigeneity, colonial legacies, feminisms, and sport. Shot over the period of several years (2009-2015), Kwanxwala-Thunder constructs a portrait of Alert Bay through soccer. The film's impressionistic approach takes us through the incorporation of soccer into Kwakwaka'wakw culture despite its colonial arrival on the island while highlighting multiple generations of female soccer players.
