These works are a unique part of Indigenous cultural heritage,\u00a0\u00bb says Manon Barbeau, Executive Director of Wapikoni.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe believe in the power of film to affect change. That\u2019s why a program like\u00a0<em>Wapikoni, Cinema on Wheels<\/em>\u00a0is so important. It helps amplify the voices of these emerging Indigenous creators,\u201d says Jacqueline Dupuis, Executive Director of VIFF. \u201cWe believe in supporting the talent that exists here in Canada and are always on the lookout for good stories and innovative ways of creating them. We are honoured to partner with Wapikoni in sharing the often unheard stories created by Indigenous youth across Canada.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>About Wapikoni<\/strong><br \/>\nWapikoni Mobile is a travelling audiovisual and musical creation studio dedicated to Indigenous youth.
