Storyline
Reclaim My Skin uncovers Indigenous women’s history by looking at our traditional cultures where the authority of women, men, queer, non-binary, and transgendered people were in harmonious balance. The documentary series goes back in time to examine the arrival of the European patriarchy and unpack the strategies of how that foreign power attempted to destroy the matriarchal and Two Spirit powers within our communities: slavery, alcohol, body shaming, sterilization, destruction of our food systems, taking of our children (residential schools, 60’s Scoop, foster care), outlawing our ceremonies, and replacement of our governance. Reclaim My Skin looks at how these patriarchal systems were set in place and how they still resonate today.

Role typeRoleGender & Age range
ActorSKY WOMANFemale 30 - 39 Years old
Description
An Indigenous woman who is literally caught between worlds. At first we see her pregnant as she falls from the sky. Her journey down to earth is supported and protected by nature itself until she lands on the earth and we then see her with her twin children. Please note: This actor will need to be on a cable rig that elevates and then drops her so it looks like she is falling. It will require someone fit and able to handle that kind of action (it will not a big fall and will be shot against green screen). If your client has stunt/rig experience, please add in Notes section.
