Roxann Whitebean profiled in Playback

Posted: 25 Sep 2017 05:11 PM PDT

Roxann Whitebean (NSI IndigiDocs) is profiled in Playback as part of their Indigenous Voices Rising series. Other grads have also been featured including Eagle Vision, Rezolution Pictures and Michelle Latimer.

Roxann talked about her CBC projects, Thunder Blanket and Karihwanoron: Precious Things, as well as upcoming web project The Warden which received Telefilm Micro-Budget Production Program funding earlier this year after being nominated by NSI.

As Roxann told Playback: “We’re not educating each other enough about our cultures or our current struggles. It’s very important to tell stories of our people who are underrepresented [on screen].”

Craig David Wallace-directed Slasher: Guilty Party coming to Netflix, October 17

Posted: 25 Sep 2017 10:54 AM PDT

Slasher: Guilty Party, directed by Craig David Wallace (NSI Totally Television), arrives on Netflix on October 17. This is the follow-up to last year’s horror series Slasher.

Set in the remote Canadian winter wilderness, the story revolves around a group of former summer camp counsellors who are forced to return to the isolated campground to retrieve evidence of a crime they committed in their youth.

Before long the group, and the camp’s latest inhabitants – members of a spiritual retreat with their own secrets to hide – find themselves targeted by someone, or something, out for horrific revenge.
