"Weengushk International Film Festival is one of those festivals which actually does what it sets out to do. It reaches out to an Indigenous audience and to local communities and brings talented filmmakers, producers, and professionals together from around the world to engage with the audience and the community.

It is quite impressive. What WIFF does is special and stands out amongst all the other festivals. It is a pleasure to work with and support the festival."
