Co-produced by INDIGENOUS LED and Beaver Institute, Beaver: A Medicine of Possibility is a short film that explores how Beaver—nature’s master builders—offers us invaluable lessons in connection, rebuilding, and healing. Through their behaviors and roles in ecosystem engineering, Beaver inspire us to reconnect with nature, rebuild our communities, and heal the fractured relationships between humans and the natural world.
We created this film with the intention of spreading Beaver Medicine intentionally and generously. If you would like to host a screening of the film, please reach out to Adam Burnett (adam@beaverinstitute.org).
To support the development and activity of the InterTribal Beaver Council, please contribute via INDIGENOUS LED’s website and note that the funds are restricted to Beaver.
