The largest collection of her films on DVD to date, works selected for Alanis Obomsawin: A Legacy span five decades of socially engaged cinema, from her very first film at the NFB, 1971’s Christmas at Moose Factory, to four new works making their debut in this DVD set. Also included is Obomsawin’s first feature-length documentary, the groundbreaking Mother of Many Children (1977), which created a space for Indigenous women’s stories and perspectives on the screen as a global feminist movement was taking shape.
