Actress Amber Midthunder will be joining us here in r/movies for an AMA/Q&A on Monday 9/14. It'll go live about 24 hours in advance, and she'll be back to answer questions at around 3 PM ET that day. Amber was the breakout star of 2022's Prey, and has also starred in things such as Legion, Novocaine, Rez Ball, Opus, The Ice Road, and Roswell New Mexico.
Please stop by on Monday 9/14 if you have any questions for Amber :)
Her newest film, How We Stand, is premiering next week at TIFF. It also stars Cara Jade Myers, Alyssa Wapanatâhk, Isabel Deroy-Olson, Eric Johnson, Darren Mann, Gary Farmer and Gil Bellows.
Based on writer-director Marie Clements’ (Bones of Crows, TIFF ’22) own play Tombs of the Vanishing Indian, How We Stand is a riveting drama of sisters whose lives are shaped by government policies meant to eradicate Indigenous people.
In 1950s Oklahoma, a single mother (Cara Jade Myers, Killers of the Flower Moon) and her three young daughters take a risk on the Native American Relocation Program, and journey to Los Angeles. But instead of the promised career and stability, they find the opposite. A traumatic event takes place in the Los Angeles’ river’s concrete channel, which then becomes a crucial place for the sisters in its aftermath.
Please note that this is not the AMA, just an announcement. Hold your questions for the actual AMA.
