Join us for an engaging conversation with acclaimed filmmaker and producer Georgina Lightning, who will reflect on the power of media to inspire change, build economies, and shape political and social movements.
In this conversation, Georgina will explore how media can perpetuate harmful narratives, but also how it can serve as a force for empowerment, opportunity, and community strength. Drawing from her Hollywood experience and her work in Alberta, she will consider how investing in Indigenous filmmaking can create cultural, political, and economic impact, both locally and nationally.
Facilitated by Janine Windolph, Director of Indigenous Arts at Banff Centre, the session includes a presentation by Georgina, followed by a discussion and a Q&A. This conversation will be live-streamed and will also be recorded and shared following the event. Sessions may share experiences and ask difficult questions.
