A collection of Two Spirit and Indigenous films sharing meaningful stories through expressions of reciprocity, gathering, and connection. Intergenerational and unceasing, A Brave and Tender Lineage explores the intersection of tradition, language, land, and a commitment to maintaining balance guided by ancestral teachings. These films explore intercommunal processes of healing, weaving revolutionary acts of reclamation through family histories, space-making gestures, and the uplifting of cultural practices in spite of pervading colonial attempts at erasure.
