SUMMARY:Savage Smudge - Late Night Shorts
DESCRIPTION:G.O.A.T\n\n\n\nKimberley Benjamin (Yawuru\, Bardi and Kija) • 11m • Australia • 2026 • English \n\n\n\nHilarious small-town hijinks ensue as a young queer Aboriginal woman\, Lilah\, falls head over heels for an apparently indifferent new colleague and puts her desire to the test\, sparking a chaotic\, heartfelt race to ask her to the NAIDOC Ball. \n\n\n\nTHE FIRST INDIGENOUS FEMALE PORNOGRAPHER\n\n\n\nJamie Whitecrow (Seine River First Nation) • Key Cast: Monique Mojica (Guna & Rappahannock) • 13m • 2025 • Canada • English \n\n\n\nTHE FIRST INDIGENOUS FEMALE PORNOGRAPHER is Audrey Little-breast\, a native woman whose life and work defies categorization. During a candid interview\, she unravels the mysterious settler desire and sexual appetite for “imaginary Indians” that guided her pornographic work in the 1970s and contemplates its impact on Indigenous sexuality. This film blends and bends archival footage\, pornography\, and re-enactments\, and invites us to ponder how deeply historical and contemporary settler-indigenous relations impact our sexuality. \n\n\n\nConvenience Store NDN Zombie\n\n\n\nCole Forrest (Anishinaabe) • 6.5m • USA • 2025 • English \n\n\n\nZoe and Benny are in love. Benny dies the night before Halloween and is reanimated as a zombie. Claire\, Zoe’s best friend has nefarious intentions. \n\n\n\nBeneath Our Skin\n\n\n\nNgaire Lyden-Elleray (Pasifika/Mi’kmaq/Tongan/Irish/English) • 15m 2025 • Canada • English \n\n\n\nMisi\, a young Indigenous woman\, is plagued by vivid dreams that draw her deeper into her family’s past and their connection to the land.

Subtitles \n\n\n\nOne day all the men in the village went hunting. And days\, and weeks and months passed… And they didn’t come back. The women of the village then exchanged their children among themselves\, so as not to be left without husbands\, and began to live a new life. However\, one day the men returned from hunting. And they found themselves in a state of affairs very different from the one they had left.  \n\n\n\nSpoken in the Maxakali language and illustraded by the residents of Forest School Village (Aldeia Escola Floresta) in the mucicipality of Teófilo Otoni\, in Minas Gerais state\, in southeastern Brazil\, Kakxop pahok is based on a traditional story of the Maxakali (Tikmû’ûn) people. And forms the Hãmnõgnõy Trilogy of indigenous animations with Konãgxeka: the Maxakali Flood (2016) and Mãtãnãg\, the Enchanted (2019).

SUMMARY:Rising Through The Fray
DESCRIPTION:Courtney Montour\, Director / Jason Brennan\, Producer • 1 hour 28 minutes • 2025 • Canada • English with French Subtitles \n\n\n\nUniting from across continents to bring representation to the sport they love\, Indigenous Rising laces up their skates to claim their space on the roller derby track. \n\n\n\nIndigenous Rising is the first team in roller derby history to break the barriers of representing a single country at the Roller Derby World Cup – igniting a movement that pulsates throughout the sport and within each other. Rising Through the Fray follows the team as it welcomes a new generation of players determined to change the face of roller derby—an inclusive\, female-empowering sport still lacking diversity. \n\n\n\nWith a compassionate and candid lens\, filmmaker Courtney Montour weaves energetic on-track game play with tender moments in teammates’ daily lives as skaters from over 30 Indigenous Nations navigate and learn each other’s play styles at tournaments and find strength within each other to compete and skate onto the track with pride. \n\n\n\nIntimate portraits of teammates Sour Cherry\, Krispy and Hawaiian Blaze reveal stories of displacement and disconnection from their culture and identities and the journey of finding belonging within team Indigenous Rising. \n\n\n\nRising Through the Fray offers a poignant exploration of resiliency\, healing and reconnection of a roller derby family with a bond that goes beyond sport.

SUMMARY:Welcome to Ballroom
DESCRIPTION:Welcome to Ballroom! An Introductory Session and Workshop by the Kiki House of Greta Constantine \n\n\n\nIn this session\, we open the doors to a world shaped by resilience\, creativity\, and unapologetic self‐expression. It is an invitation into a living culture built by Black and Latinx queer & trans communities who carved out space to be seen\, celebrated\, and free. \n\n\n\nThe Kiki House of Greta Constantine will guide you through this journey. Whether you’re stepping into ballroom for the first time or deepening your connection to it\, this session is designed to ground you in the history\, values\, and artistry that make ballroom a global force of joy and resistance. \n\n\n\nYou’ll learn the language\, the categories\, and the heartbeat of the scene\, and yes\, you’ll get moving. Expect community. Expect laughter. Expect to be challenged. Expect to be inspired. Most importantly\, expect to be welcomed exactly as you are.
