What's life like for Canada's queer indigenous community? | DW Documentary
This film delves into the world of members of indigenous LGBTQIA+ communities in Canada. Activist and filmmaker Sarain Fox sheds light on their lives, while asking what the future holds. The answers come from a wide variety of perspectives.
On her quest, Sarain accompanies a young family friend on a journey of her own as she works to complete her coming out process with her friends, family and pow wow community. She also meets with other members of the Indigenous community. Along with queer fellow human beings, old guardians of knowledge and the well-known drag queen Ilona Verley, she sheds light on their stories, and on their perspectives on indigenous and sexual identity.
Through these connections, Sarain gains a better understanding of who she is, where she came from and what the future holds for the next generation of queer Indigenous youth.
