YINTAH,
meaning "land" in the Wet'suwet'en language, tells the story
of an Indigenous nation asserting sovereignty. It is the story of the
Wet'suwet'en people reoccupying their territory and resisting the
construction of multiple pipelines.
The
film follows
Tsakë ze' Howilhkat Freda Huson and Tsakë ze' Sleydo' Molly
Wickham,
along with the Wet'suwet'en Hereditary Chiefs and fellow land
defenders, as they reoccupy and protect their traditional land in a
decade-long battle to keep out the companies that seek to exploit it.

?After
the film, we will have a live, virtual Q&A with Tsakë
ze'Howilhkat Freda Huson where the audience will have a chance to
ask questions.
Tsakë
ze'Howilhkat Freda Huson is a wing chief of the Unist'ot'en
people of the Wet'suwet'en C'ilhts'ëkhyu clan. In 2011, she
reoccupied her family's ancestral territory in defiance of enormous
fossil fuel development, and in doing so became a recognized leader
in the international fight for Indigenous sovereignty. Leaving behind
a comfortable life to live directly in the path of a proposed
pipeline corridor through Wet'suwet'en yintah, Howilhkat lead the
way for other Wet'suwet'en families to reclaim their lands. With
the help of many supporters she built a healing center for
Wet'suwet'en people to heal from the violence of colonialism. She is
internationally recognized for this work and has spoken as an
advocate for her people at the United Nations.
The
film and
Q&A will be in English, and the film will have English subtitles.
