There, where the creek is burnt, they still walk –
Work-in-progress screening with anthropologist and filmmaker Andrea Bordoli
Presented by the Critical Media Club
"This work-in-progress audiovisual piece results from fieldwork material gathered during my ongoing PhD project exploring extractivism, (social) ecologies and re-mediations in and around the mining town of Schefferville and the Innu community of Matimekush–Lac John. Located in the vast boreal forest at the northern border between Québec and Labrador, the region is at the heart of the Nitassinan - the Innu people unceded, yet still unrecognized, territory. Working across different forms and filmic registers, There,where the creek is burnt, they still walk proposes a sensorial engagement with different ways of relating to this specific territory, as well as with the communities and presences inhabiting it."
