SUGARCANE is now a Nat Geo Docs film! (Which technically makes Emily Kassie and me Disney kids.)

Couldn't have found a better partner and home for our film.

Coming soon to a film festival, movie theatre and Disney+ subscription near you.

For decades Indigenous communities have been fighting to tell this story. Julian Brave NoiseCat and I are thrilled that SUGARCANE will help bring their voices to the world with Nat Geo Docs on Disney+.

This epic, intimate and urgent story has found its home.

'Sugarcane' documents the legacy of the segregated St. Joseph school, one of many promulgated by the Canadian govt. and run by the Catholic Church. Julian Brave NoiseCat & Emily Kassie discuss this testament to survival and renewal despite deep, still-ongoing pain. bit.ly/3SI4tsX

The film is a stunning and brutal look at the lasting trauma of the St. Joseph's Mission Residential School, a government-funded Catholic institution where indigenous children were sent with the aim of stripping them of the connection to their culture. indiewire.com/criticism/movi…
