In an exploration of traditional Washoe (Wašíw) lands and culture, this short film offers a glimpse into the Indigenous roots of the Tahoe region: a world-famed site of natural beauty that continues to grapple with legacies of colonization, including in its ongoing development. As the Washoe recount efforts to revitalize cultural practices, language, and ways of life, we are brought on a visceral journey of identity and community – and left with a potent sense of how listening, respect, and reciprocity are central to connecting with and protecting the places we love, and our planet at large, for generations to come. This project is generously supported by the Tahoe Fund.
