Through Her Eyes

The plot

This film is a poetic composition of memory, influence and identity. First Nations filmmaker Jason Haji-Ali who wrote, produced and directed this film explores his cultural identity as he reflects on his childhood, the toxicity of social media and conversation with his grandmother, Phyllis. This sensitive, gentle yet powerful film is guided by Haji-Ali's voice as he attempts to strengthen his cultural identity and reconnect with his indigenous heritage. Conversations with his grandmother lead Jason to question the impact of the Stolen Generation as it passes through his family's history. His grandmother's stories help shape his understanding of what it means to be Aboriginal.

Written, Directed and Produced by Jason Haji-Ali
