In this ScreenFish 1on1 Interview, director Darlene Naponse discusses AKI, reflecting on the process of developing the film and whether it required her to slow down personally in order to tell the story truthfully. She explores what drew her to the project, the beauty found in everyday life, and the deep relationship between culture and nature. Darlene also considers what we learn about ourselves and the world when we slow down and pay closer attention.AKI is available in theatres on June 30th with some earlier screenings taking place on June 9th and 11th.
