Meet Our Team

Great Canadian Films is an Indigenous owned and operated business founded in 2020 with a simple goal: Create a bespoke storytelling company that is easy for clients to trust with their message.

Our client centric approach to storytelling has allowed us to grow from a simple team working part time, to a multi-talented and multi-disciplined team of passionate storytellers who work across Alberta.

In 2024 we started on an ambitious plan to continue growing our corporate video work while also launching a narrative department. We developed a script for a pilot series called Crumbs and received funding to pursue it’s principle photography in 2025.

Thanks to grants he was able to make his debut narrative film The Katabasis followed up by the award winning Indigidoc Spirit Of A Nation: The Places We Belong.
