Got No Nothing

AD:This title is currently not available on Prime Video

"Gaawiin Gego" is based on a rhyme in Ojibwe that my great aunt taught me, the lyrics reference the blues and a Nina Simone song. The audio track is layered over top of found video footage from Lac Des Mille Lacs, which is the lake beside our Reserve. The editing uses compositing and other techniques to muck around with the footage and build a visual narrative that has themes of Ojibwe cosmology, water and land, the afterlife, the underworld/and skyworld, connection and disconnection to home/homelands/territory and displacement.
