First up, the biggest Indigenous film festival in the world will have an Online Booth at SXSW: imagineNATIVE Media + Arts Festival is gearing up for a rich virtual program that reflects its role as a connecting point for Indigenous creatives.

Presented with the support of Telefilm Canada, highlights will include talks with Indigenous multimedia artists and composers, cinematic case studies on Indigenous coproductions, uplifting stories about Arctic collaborations with Indigenous film professionals, and a lively discussion about culture, technology and creativity in the digital landscape.

Based in Toronto, imagineNATIVE’s next Media + Arts Festival is slated to take place from October 19 through 24, 2021!
