In recognition of Native American Heritage Month, CASCADIA International Women’s Film Festival is proud to announce the screening of “Nika And Madison”. The film is the first solo feature from emerging Indigenous director Eva Thomas, a member of the Walpole Island First Nation in southwestern Ontario, Canada.

“Nika And Madison” centers on two young Indigenous women, Nika and Madison, as they re-evaluate their life and estranged friendship following a fateful encounter with police. Touching on topics such as systemic racism and police brutality it introduces audiences to a story that balances female friendship and agency.

CASCADIA Executive Director Cheryl Crooks said since the festival’s first event in 2017, CASCADIA has been committed to presenting films directed by Indigenous women filmmakers. A few years ago, the festival began presenting special screenings of films in November for Native American Heritage month.

Cost: $12 / $10 students
