Hot Docs Canadian International Documentary Festival [https://hotdocs.ca/] 2026 coverage continues with guests: director, Kenya-Jade Pinto [https://www.kenyajade.com/] (The Sandbox) and filmmakers (Let the Mountains Live) multi-award winning director, Hävard Bustnes [https://www.haavardbustnes.com/] and Johannes Vang, and Sissel Holtan, a reindeer herder. A lawyer, photographer and first-time director, Kenya-Jade and I discuss the million dollar tech industry of migrant and refugee surveillance and the activists working to provide basic human rights to people in need. What does that mean for you and me? You'll want to find out... The Sámi people of Norway won a supreme court decision recognizing their indigenous land rights, so why are herders in North Fosten still fighting against a major wind turbine company that has built hundreds of turbines on reindeer territory? This David and Goliath story reveals the global contractions built into Truth and Reconciliation documents. Music by Son Aché: 'Celia' played in honour of Cuban Salsa Queen, Celia Cruz [https://celiacruz.com/] being inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
