NAMESAKE

Reciprocity Trusts presents this screening of NAMESAKE, a Tla'amin Nation film about place, memory, and what it means to live together.

In the coastal community widely known as Powell River, a request from the Tla'amin Nation sets off a public conversation.

What happens when a place is asked to remember differently?

Through interviews, archival records, oral histories, and community gatherings, təm kʷaθ nan (Namesake) follows the unfolding discussion around a possible name change for the city and the deeper question beneath it.

Whose stories live in the place we call home?

Join us for a film screening, followed by Q&A with aʔǰɛmaθot, Davis McKenzie, Executive Producer and representatives from Reciprocity Trusts. namesake.film reciprocitytrusts.ca

Admission is by donation to Reciprocity Trusts Society. All proceeds will go towards costs associated with the screening. ~ the Vic Theatre is a wheelchair-accessible venue with a ramp and elevator.
