Wildhood

Wildhood is a 2021 Canadian coming-of-age romantic drama film, written, produced, and directed by Bretten Hannam. An expansion of Hannam’s earlier short film Wildfire, which was the winner of the award for Best Short Film at the Screen Nova Scotia awards in 2020, the film stars Phillip Lewitski as Lincoln, a young man in his late teens who was raised disconnected from his maternal Mi’kmaq heritage by his abusive white father Arvin; following the discovery that his mother Sarah, whom he had long been told was dead, is in fact still alive, he takes his younger half-brother Travis on a journey to find her. En route, they meet the openly two-spirit Pasmay, who becomes both a guide to Lincoln in reconnecting with his indigenous roots and a love interest.
