Stephanie Thorassie is the Executive Director of the Seal River Watershed Alliance. Her work as an Indigenous leader and defender of the land has become the subject of a documentary film called “We Are Made from the Land: Protecting the Seal River Watershed.”
The film is a powerful documentary that tells an inspiring story of healing, community, and vision. It shows how Indigenous Peoples are working to protect the land and the caribou, while striving to create a more sustainable and equitable future for everyone.
