Salmon - Tsúqwaoz' (Salish Version)

Expert fishers for their entire lives, Stl’atl’imx (Líl̓wat) Elders Cora and Daniel Wells share their deep knowledge of salmon fishing, cleaning and smoking.

This short is part of the L’il’wata series. In the early 1970s, at the outset of her documentary career, Alanis Obomsawin visited the Stl’atl’imx (Líl̓wat) Nation, an Interior Salish First Nation in British Columbia, and created a series of shorts that provide personal narratives about their culture, histories and knowledge.

Remastered on DVD in 2009.
