We Are Storytellers — Orenda Films

CINEMA ROOTED IN INDIGENOUS IDENTITY

SCROLL

Orenda Films honours the lands, waters, and peoples across Turtle Island. Based on the traditional territories of the Lək̓ʷəŋən peoples now known as the Esquimalt and Songhees First Nations,
our work extends across the ancestral homelands of Indigenous Nations coast to coast to coast.

ORENDA

ORENDA (oren-da)

A sacred life force that resides in each and every person. It grows with time and experience, by living in a good way.

A person with strong Orenda empowers themselves and those around them: toward peace, harmony, and unity.

A HAUDENOSAUNEE CONCEPT — CONNECTED TO THE TREE OF PEACE

WHO WE ARE — THE SYNOPSIS

Métis and 2-Spirit owned. Rooted in Victoria, BC.
