MICHIF KOONTEUR MEANS "MÉTIS STORYTELLER" 

Good storytelling is good medicine. 

Our stories are shaped by our unique lived experiences. To tell them, we apply the principle of two-eyed seeing: honouring both traditional Indigenous knowledge and fair Western practices to benefit all people.

Every project is meant to provoke thought, inspire connection, and encourage a better future. With a focus on identity, mental health, and cultural reclamation, the company is committed to ethical, community-centered filmmaking that upholds Indigenous data sovereignty and cultural integrity.

Michif Koonteur’s work has been internationally recognized at Cannes, the Banff World Media Festival, and the European Film Market at Berlinale. With a growing slate of impactful screen projects, including the genre feature Ancestral Beasts, the company is building a sustainable, values-driven future for Indigenous media — one story at a time.
