In this second episode, we explore the documentary Yintah, which follows the Wet’suwet’en First Nation in western Canada. Their unceded territory spans 22,000 km² and is governed solely by the leaders of its five clans. The film highlights their struggle to protect their land from natural gas and oil projects, reflecting the broader fight for Indigenous rights. Recorded during the Movies that Matter Festival 2025, this conversation delves into the story behind the film and its impact.
