About the Short Film

Animation Stop Motion Short Film Original

Amanda Strong once again enlisted the help of the Boldly film production team to help her produce Four Faces of the Moon, a short animated film exploring the reclamation of language and Nationhood and peeling back the layers of Canada's colonial history. The film was officially accepted into TIFF 2016, VIFF 2016 and Amanda was invited to speak at several events praising aboriginal women in film.
