    ‘Night Raiders’ (2021) - Danis Goulet’s dystopian political horror movie about an Indigenous Cree mother and daughter trying to survive under a fascist military dictatorship called ‘The Regime’. I dare you to watch this trailer without immediately wanting to turn this on. youtu.be/TBsAEUe0cIg

    Okay, I got a question. Who’s a living Indigenous/First Nations/Inuit/Native American filmmaker whose film i can watch and also get a script to read? Any ideas? I was thinking Daniis Goulet’s Night Raiders but i can’t find a script. It’s for a university class.

    …how past generations survived or what they preserved… Waubgeshig Rice, Angeline Boulley, Cherie Dimaline, Darcie Little Badger, Karen McBride among others. That fabulous movie, Night Raiders? I think that’s the title. Blood Quantum, too. Humour and hope, among devastation and loss.

    The Canadian movie NIGHT RAIDERS 📽️ is extremely relevant to the current moment, as the picture of the Indigenous child in a cage will show you www.criticsnotebook.com/night-raider...

    Not a book, but the 2021 film Night Raiders is a futuristic look at residential schools.

    Not a bad watch, though the post-apocalyptic sci-fi elements do seem a touch superfluous. On the other hand maybe submerging the themes helps make it easier to reach a wider audience. Night Raiders (2021) — The Movie Database (TMDB) https://www.themoviedb.org/movie/795778-night-raiders […]

    I love her, and Dallas Goldtooth, so I was going to watch it no matter what. I liked it. But I think Night Raiders is my highest recommended, in terms of the writing. It’s a brilliant film.

    I’m going to add to this excellent list: BEANS (Tracey Deer), a terrific coming of age film about the Oka Crisis NIGHT RAIDERS (Danis Goulet), a sci fi fantasy in a future world where children are taken by the state
