GATHER Film Screening + Q&A with Director Sanjay Rawal


GATHER - a First Nations Development Institute special event with post screening discussion Nov 10 Sun 12:30pm only! Dir. Sanjay Rawal - 2024 - 74m First Nations Development Institute presents GATHER plus Q&A with director Sanjay Rawal (joining virtually) and cast member Twila Cassadore (joining in person)! As part of First Nations’ overall GATHER project — with generous support of The Indigenous Peoples Fund at Tides Foundation and The 11th Hour Project of The Schmidt Family Foundation, along with additional organizational funders and individual donors — GATHER is a James Beard Award-Winning documentary and an intimate portrait tracing the intentional destruction of Native American foodways and the renaissance and resilience, the inherit right, to reclaim it. The result of a three-year collaboration between First Nations and award-winning director Sanjay Rawal, and executive produced by Jason Momoa, production partner Brian Mendoza, and Sterlin Harjo, GATHER builds international awareness, understanding, and appreciation of the Native American food movement, which will ultimately bolster support in improving policy and the regulatory environment for long-term sustainability. The film features the work of First Nations’ grantees and partners, and supports tribes and Native communities as they build sustainable foodways that improve health, strengthen food security and increase control over Native agriculture and food systems.
