River Woman

Director of Photography | Videography

Here’s a not very well known fact about our ever popular Duluth, Minnesota: Several ships that come into the port are involved with the illegal trade and trafficing of local Indigenous Women. These woman are often kidnapped and killed and thrown into the depths of Lake Superior. Christine Stark disects this rough reality as well as her harsh upbringing in native culture in Minnesota. In the short River Woman, we explore these intense topics while also illuminating the importance of art and cultural healing.

If there was ever a project that changed my perception of the world and it’s people, it’s this one.
