 Aydaygooay
(2007, 5 min.) CANADA
Director: Mary Code (Sayisi Dene)
Live action footage from the central barrens and tundra-forest
of northern Manitoba interwoven with animation tells a legend
of the Sayisi Dene First Nation. When the caribou are disrespected
by some young women of the community, they do not return the next
season to be hunted. Using his special powers, Aydaygooay brings
the caribou back to his people. This story was told to the filmmaker
by her father, John Clipping in 1975.
