Sinakson Trevor Solway

A horror-comedy series that adapts Blackfoot traditional tales and urban legends for the screen. Grizzled Elder Uncle Randalf, who straddles the living and spirit worlds, introduces each episode with dark humor and a love for storytelling.

Directed and written by Emmitt Many Heads (age 18) and filmed in Siksika Nation, Alberta, during an Indigenous Youth Filmmaking Workshop as part of the 2025 imagineNATIVE Tour.

Amidst a sweeping Prairies backdrop, this luminous exploration of strength and vulnerability spans generations of Siksika men and boys as they learn to embrace the intricacies of self-discovery, identity and love in a world that often misunderstands and stigmatizes them.

This allegorical horror film tells the story of an 1800s settler family on the “frontier” hoping to establish a prosperous homestead. Their claim to the land is met by the Blackfoot Trickster Napi, who offers more than just goods to share.

Trevor Solway is a Blackfoot filmmaker from the Siksika Nation. In this touching film, he evokes the living memory of his grandfather, a residential school survivor, a cowboy who competed in rodeos and taught the art of horsemanship to his grandchildren.

Iikaiksimatsa’pao’p (Grateful to Be on the Land) follows Cassie Ayoungman, founder of Soul of Miistaki and member of the Siksika nation, on her journey to bring the healing power of the mountains to those within her community. Breaking down barriers to climbing, and integrating Indigenous teachings and land-based learning, she raises questions about representation, builds community, and redefines what it means to be on the land.

Ts'oostsitsi is a Blackfoot word used to describe the past. Feeling responsible to continue storytelling in his family, Ike Solway recounts a powerful experience had by his grandfather. What follows is a story that echoes through generations.
