In her narrative debut Meadowlarks, filmmaker Tasha Hubbard revisits the legacy of the Sixties Scoop, drawing from the real-life story behind her documentary Birth of a Family. Centered on four Indigenous siblings reunited for a weekend in Banff, the film unfolds as an intimate exploration of reconnection, memory, and unresolved trauma. Hubbard's screenplay, co-written with Emil Sher, thoughtfully balances moments of warmth and tension, allowing each character space to emerge with depth and individuality. Set against the sweeping beauty of Banff, Canada, the film carries emotional weight and cultural resonance, even as its quiet, dialogue-driven approach privileges reflection over dramatic flourish.
