Fire Song Trailer Final from Wolfe Video on Vimeo.
Canadian Aboriginal LGBT drama FIRE SONG will release in the U.S. on DVD / VOD November 8th from Wolfe Video. The debut feature by Canadian LGBT native filmmaker Adam Garnet Jones, this is the first Canadian narrative feature film to deal with the First Nations community and Two-Spirited people.
A thoughtful character study, FIRE SONG focuses on a young gay Anishinaabe man who is at a crossroads, forced to choose between the challenges of life on a homophobic First Nation reservation and his close knit family, a secret boyfriend, and the possibilities offered by the outside world.
Said filmmaker Jones, "It is important for Aboriginal writers and directors to tell stories that respect the complex social position of Aboriginal people, while also exploring the rich emotional and spiritual lives of our characters. The emotional world of Fire Song is rooted in my own experiences, and it celebrates the incredible resilience of our young people, the strength of our families, and our hope for the future."
