[Short film] #Weckuwapok
(The Approaching Dawn)

"On these traditional homelands, #Waponahkik (the people of the dawn land) bring gratitude to the sun where it first looks our way. Song and stories invite us to accept the new day and put behind us any harm done the day before. These are relational lessons shared from ancestors since time immemorial.

"Featuring in collaboration Passamaquoddy citizens #ChristopherNewell, #RogerPaul, and #LaurenStevens; and #YoYoMa."
