Tulalip Film Festival:
On September 20th, the Hibulb Cultural Center hosted
it’s second annual Tulalip Film Festival event.  This year’s theme
was ‘Family, Through Our Eyes’.
One of the festival’s winners was ‘Blackroot’ which won awards for
best feature short, best male acting, and best female acting.
Set in 1967, Blackroot tells the story of an American Indian teen that
stuggles with gender identity, the death of a grandmother
and the sudden appearance of 4 white teenagers searching for
a hallucinogenic mushroom called Blackgroot.
The festival also honored Lois Landgrebe with the Tulalip best acting award
for her role in Blackroot.  David Spencer, Sr. was honored with a Lifetime Achievement for
Tulalip Coast Salish entertainment, storytelling and cultural sharing.
