Hoka Hey (2022)

From 1850, young Native Americans were forcibly interned in Catholic boarding schools to assimilate them into the American nation. By 1900, the population of natives in North America had declined by 93%. Most had died of new diseases brought in by the settlers, state-sponsored exterminations, and deportations. George is a young Lakota raised by the pastor who administers his reservation. The young boy gradually forgets his roots and dreams of a future inspired by the American ideal, currently in full expansion. He is about to cross paths with Little Knife, a cold and violent Native American in search of his mother's murderer. Along with his two companions, he tears George out of his life and takes him on his quest. Throughout their journey, the man and the boy will open up to each other and find what is vital to them: the appeasement of anger by the transmission of their culture for one and the discovery of his identity and his origins for the other. by Neyef.

Ladies with Guns

Five women from various backgrounds are brought together by fate to fight as allies for their survival. A retired schoolteacher, an Indian who’s handy with a bow, a young, immigrant widow from London, a brothel worker who’s made off with the till and a fourteen-year-old slave who’s been put in a cage. 

This unlikely band of adventurers must fight off the violence men resort to when caught in greed’s ubiquitous grip. They’ll do it with arrows, pies, brooms, pots, knitting-needles, and a lethal revolver that becomes even more dangerous in the hands of the sharpest-shooter of them all: a teenager who’s been whipped, locked in a cage and freed only to fall victim to pneumonia. These women have got each other’s backs and don’t take kindly to the worst mankind has to offer. Script by Olivier Bocquet - Art by Anlor. 

The Ark (repost)

A lone figure in a diving suit drags an enormous wooden ark through the desert, scarring the earth with its deep furrow. A plane crashes. A zeppelin prowls the azure skies, its crew seduced by caged women, while Bedouins and soldiers clash under the blazing sun. This poetic tale entrances as it pulls all these elements and characters together into a haunting yet mesmerizing canvas.
