Post-screening Q&A with Bretten Hannam (director, producer, screenwriter)
Directed by L’nu filmmaker Bretten Hannam (Wildhood, TIFF ’21), Sk+te’kmujue’katik (At the Place of Ghosts) is an eerie thriller focusing on two Mi’kmaw brothers confronting their past trauma.
Genre: Drama, Horror
Director: Bretten Hannam
Cast: Forrest Goodluck, Blake Alec Miranda
Runtime: 81 minutes
Siblings Mise’l and Antle, close confidants as children, have drifted apart as adults. When a malevolent spirit begins tormenting them, the siblings are forced to reunite and journey into Sk+te’kmujue’katik (the Place of Ghosts), a primordial forest that exists outside of time, to confront their violent upbringing.
Sk+te’kmujue’katik (At The Place of Ghosts) is a visceral supernatural thriller, 11 years in the writing, elevated by the deeply personal work of Two-Spirit, L’nu filmmaker Bretten Hannam from Kespukwitk, L’nuekati (Nova Scotia). Their films deal with themes of community, culture, and language with a focus on Two-Spirit and LGBTQ+ identity.
Official Selection, TIFF ’25
Content advisory: coarse language, violence, frightening scenes, mature theme
