Film Description:
"Today moccasins and mukluks are a huge fashion trend, yet the skill has been at risk of being lost. This documentary follows the women who are at the forefront of keeping the craft of moccasin making alive. The resurgence of moccasin making shows that despite the disastrous effects of colonization Indigenous cultures have remained resilient and strong."
