Quote:
"Dancers of the Grass by Métis/Salteaux film-maker Melanie Jackson features a claymation puppet, animated using stop-motion techniques, performing a hoop dance in a flattened grass circle on the prairie. The dance symbolizes the unity of all nations and is accompanied by powwow music from the 'Gathering of Nations' by Irvin Waskewitch."
