Before America (2026)

Step back in time with *Before America*, a documentary that unearths the vibrant Indigenous past of Michigan, centuries before the U.S. map was even drawn. Journey from the explosive 1763 rebellion at Fort Michilimackinac to the silent guidance of Odawa trail trees, and meet the unsung heroines of Fort Detroit. This film powerfully reveals how the Anishinaabe people forged the destiny of the Great Lakes and lit the fuse that would one day ignite the American colonies.
