Wildhood

A rebellious two-spirit teenager runs away from home to find his birth mother and reclaim his Mi'kmaw heritage in this coming-of-age story set in a rural east-coast trailer park.

Link (Phillip Lewitski) lives with his toxic father and younger half-brother Travis (Avery Winters-Anthony). When Link discovers his Mi’kmaw mother could still be alive, it lights a flame and they make a run for a better life. On the road, they meet Pasmay (Joshua Odjick), a pow wow dancer drawn to Link. As the boys journey across Mi’kma’ki, Link finds community, identity and love in the land where he belongs.
