In-person: Q&A with filmmaker Sky Hopinka.
Register here to join us virtually for a livestream of this Billy Wilder Theater program.

Sky Hopinka, a Ho-Chunk Nation member, is a renowned contemporary Indigenous filmmaker whose work explores memory, language and place. While his films intertwine personal stories with larger contexts, they are meditative with their use of imagery and soundscapes. This collection of shorts places earlier works from Hopinka in conversation with his most current film, showcasing the woven narrative of resiliency and resistance. We are honored that Hopinka will appear in person to discuss his work, along with an in-depth conversation on his style and approach to the moving image.
