Director Trevor Solway will be in attendance at the September 24 screening.

“Growing up in Siksika, masculinity was all around me, but it was unclear. Now, using my lens, I seek to find clarity.” Siksika filmmaker Sinakson Trevor Solway returns to the Calgary International Film Festival (TALES FROM THE REZ, CIFF 2023) with this intimate portrayal of the lives of Blackfoot men as they navigate identity, kinship and the complex expectations of manhood.

Through unfiltered moments and revealing conversations set against the breathtaking landscape of the prairies, Solway reimagines what it means to be a Native man. SIKSIKAKOWAN: THE BLACKFOOT MAN is a profound ode to strength, vulnerability and love across generations.
