If artists are always also citizens, the panelists gathered here show how powerful cinema can be when art is endowed with political intent. Ava DuVernay's trail-blazing commitment has openly called on studios and platforms alike to confront the pressing issues of underrepresentation of people of colour, women filmmakers and varied voices in American and global cinema. Celebrating the 10th anniversary of her media and narrative change powerhouse ARRAY, we've joined forces with Ava to gather three Berlinale and Talents alumni, equally potent and subtle in their films from inside Indigenous communities. After a recorded intro artist talk led by Ava, Elle-Máijá Tailfeathers, Heperi Mita and Takeshi Fukunaga continue in a live conversation about their perspectives and practises as storytellers and visionaries of a new cinema, its aesthetics, topics and characters portrayed.
