Can You Feel It Now?

"In a speculative future, a First Nations Welcomer and an Arrivant from the African Diaspora redefine first contact, weaving a tapestry of solidarity and healing through their poetic exchange."

Set in a speculative future on Turtle Island, where ancestral dreams and visions shape reality, the film follows the poetic journey of the Welcomer, a vessel of First Nations resilience, and the Arrivant, a traveller from the African diaspora. The Welcomer, reflecting on the echoes of a past reshaped by colonization, envisions a future liberated from its violence. The Arrivant, seeking a place to anchor their journey through time and space, is drawn to the Welcomer’s vision.
