Eden Mallina Awashish was born in Roberval, Quebec, in 1993. She made a name for herself right from the start, directing three films with Wapikoni Mobile: the experimental Revers de Rimbaud, the documentary Notcimik Itekera and the docu-drama Nothing About Moccasins. With a degree in computer science, she is interested in cinema in all its forms to ensure the transmission of cultural knowledge, but also to shed light on the Atikamekw nation and its issues.
There's not going to be a film about moccasins. That's how the director's grandmother decided to respond to her granddaughter's project. The film will be about transmission, but without giving away secrets that don't belong to us.
