Screening & Discussion with Filmmaker: Documentary about Standing Rock

Come to Images Cinema Wednesday 6 March for a 7pm screening and post-film discussion with the filmmaker of the documentary Denying Access: No DAPL to NoNAPL. 

Denying Access: NoDAPL to NoNAPL is a gripping documentary chronicling the Water Protectors at Standing Rock and Seneca Territory working to oppose the Dakota Access and Northern Access Pipelines. This Indigenous-led movement brought together people from around the world in an unprecedented call for the recognition of Indigenous rights and an end to a destructive fossil fuel industry. Senecas went in large numbers to “stand with Standing Rock” against DAPL and came home to find another pipeline, NAPL, being planned just upstream from their territories.

Jason Corwin (Seneca Nation, Deer Clan) is the Executive Director of the Seneca Media and Communications Center. He has a PhD from Cornell University and has done extensive work on the intersection of digital storytelling, Indigenous ways of knowing, and environmental education.
