Title: Teiakwanahstahsontéhrha’ We Extend the Rafters

Artist: Skawennati

A futuristic saga set in 3025 yet firmly rooted in the ancestral Haudenosaunee (Iroquois) confederation story and featuring historical figures such as Tekanawí:ta, Jacques Cartier, and a president addicted to Twitter! This new machinima—an animation-style movie produced on the virtual reality platform Second Life is created specifically for a youth audience.
