The search for home and belonging in Bretten Hannam’s Wildhood earned the Nova Scotia-shot film six 2022 Canadian Screen Award nominations
When Link (Phillip Lewitski) discovers that his Mi’kmaw mother is still alive, he runs away from an abusive father with his younger brother Travis (Avery Winters-Anthony) in a desperate gamble to start a new life. Joined by Pasmay (Joshua Odjick), a pow wow dancer drawn to Link’s story, they embark on a Two-Spirit odyssey, reconnecting with the culture and territory of Mi’kma’ki/Nova Scotia while searching for Link’s mother, Sarah (Savonna Spracklin). Written and directed by Bretten Hannam, a Two-Spirit L’nu filmmaker raised in Kespukwitk, Mi’kma’ki, Wildhood is an uplifting and inspiring adventure, and an indelible celebration of Mi’kmaq heritage and community. Redefining the conventional road movie through an L’nu worldview, Hannam presents a coming-of-age story that speaks to the importance of connecting with language and culture, and discovering who you truly are.
“Brettan Hannam’s glorious first feature, Wildhood, catapults him into the pantheon of filmmakers to watch.” – Edge Media Network
