Un voyage magique dans le monde des esprits haïdas
La montagne de SGaana est un conte fantastique à propos d’un jeune homme emporté dans le monde des esprits et de la jeune femme qui vient à son secours. Dans ce petit bijou de film onirique, le cinéaste haïda Christopher Auchter entremêle avec brio animation traditionnelle et éléments emblématiques de l’art haïda auxquels donnent vie une riche palette évocatrice et des effets stylisés.

An animation inspired by a traditional Haida story would be ideal for introducing students to Haida art and storytelling. What elements of style are prominent in Haida art? How is animation an ideal film medium for telling this story? How does music evoke emotion and connect to the heart of the story? Research Haida repatriation and why First Nations cultural items were confiscated, stolen or destroyed. Why is it important that the Haida and other Indigenous Nations repatriate? Research how art, storytelling and music are all embedded into the cultural foundation of the Haida.
