Amplifying Indigenous stories

Reciprocity Project films are at the center of a broader media ecosystem that includes learning materials, discussion guides, podcasts, photography, art, music, and more. We invite you to explore this storytelling space as a way to learn, reflect, explore, and act. See videos about the filmmaking process here.

Films

Season One

In Season One of Reciprocity Project, storytellers and community partners created films in response to a question: what does 'reciprocity' mean to your community? In many Indigenous languages there is no word for reciprocity; rather, it's embedded in every aspect of existence for our peoples, connecting all beings, seen and unseen.

Season Two

In Season Two of Reciprocity Project we ask the question: “What does a 'return' to land, language, and reciprocal practices mean to you and your community?” Season Two is currently in production and will premiere in early 2024.
